[ジャカルタ１１日ロイター] – The Indonesian Coast Guard Agency (BAKAMLA) announced on the 11th that it had seized an Iranian-flagged supertanker suspected of being involved in illegal transshipment of crude oil, and indicated a policy to strengthen maritime security.

The tanker (VLCC) was named MT Arman 114 and was carrying 272,569 tons of light crude oil worth 4.6 trillion rupiah ($304 million).

Aan Kurnia, director general of BAKAMLA, explained to reporters that the vessel was found to be transshipping crude oil with a Cameroon-flagged MTS Tinos near Indonesia’s North Natuna Sea on the 7th, and that it had been seized.

Both vessels tried to escape, so officials focused on tracking the MT Arman and said they had received help from Malaysian authorities after the tanker entered Malaysian waters.

The tanker is also suspected of violating other maritime regulations, including manipulating an automatic identification system (AIS) to falsify its location.
