One could also imagine investors, no? Having live data from Europes main gas delivery infra should make trading energy more advantageous than for the other smucks.

Got one "person can not be found" using the email on the official gov page that says 'Press contact of the prime minister"

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ they aren't.
But gps-jamming is nothing, since a while back it seems their policy is running with the guns loaded and manned, many examples.
Iirc they almost fired at an omnipresent surveillance drone a few months back in Fehmarn belt.

As far as I have seen none of todays shadow tankers entering Baltic Sea has seen any friction in doing so.
At least one lacks insurance, the next one entering, BREEZE, lacks also a flag, ie is lawless.
Three tankers without a flag are leaving, laden with Russian oil.
No enforcement seen.

With some legal ingenuity I am certain NATO law enforcement at least could cause massive disturbances to most of the shadow tankers. If there was a genuine will/resolve.

Amazing input in comments to this problem, thanks everyone.
One part of the problem is that I do not know beforehand which destination strings ought to be included.
I kind of need(?) to look at all of them to realize which strings could be misspelled + context knowledge.

We had the same problem a few years ago with employer names, I remember having a similar list with McDonald's being spelled creatively.
I wrote a few blogposts on how to solve this using fuzzy matching in R. They are a few years old but the technique should still work: r-vogg-blog.netlify.app/fuzzy

There were likely 10 year long processes for each windfarm analyzing all manners of impact and conditions including to shipping and environment.
Only unsure on how long they took, certain they happened.

Shadow tanker BARQ IMO 9321691 is about to enter Baltic Sea, passing a Swedish Coast Guard vessel, in about 2 hours.
She is the first shadow tanker to enter since the letter "closing Baltic Sea" was published 4 days ago.
Contrary to many missed opportunities this one is not immediately lawless.

BARQ seems to have their papers in better order than some others and changed flag to Oman 7 months ago, from false flag Djibouti.
This is as far as I can tell, it is a maze and I am not as well versed in this as eg @michellewb.bsky.social or @pa.nton.cx . There might be other irregularities.

The ice is growing thicc around Russia's Baltic oil terminals.
Ice data outlets list a bunch of ice-breakers in service, but other sources have stated Russia lack capacity to keep the ice-sensitive rust-bucket tankers in play.

No, it is not an act of war when some completely unrelated hacker group fudges the payment systems of St Petersburg, causes massive traffic jams in Moscow and flood the Russian internet with Putin gay porn.

* It is unusual to not see daily sanctioned tanker arrive to Baltic Sea, usually a few each day.
But, the last 4 days lull ismight be explained by weather: Atlantic storms, low temperature and an increasingly frozen Gulf of Finland.
