A second liquefied natural gas tanker has docked at an export terminal in northern Russia that’s subject to US sanctions, satellite images show.
The ship’s appearance and length of about 290 meters (951 feet) matches the Asya Energy, according to satellite images from Planet Labs PBC. Its arrival follows the apparent export of the Arctic LNG 2 plant’s first cargo earlier this month on another ship that also concealed its true location and was owned by the same India-based company.
