Discover the Kartha: Ratings & Maritime News

The 'Cosmo Sail' and 'Kartha', both carrying Russian Urals crude, which had signaled Sikka as their port of destination, have updated their details. The 'Cosmo Sail' had indicated Sikka with an ETA as of Dec. 29, 2025. The shipment was linked to the Jamnagar refinery operated by Reliance Industries Ltd. A few days later, however, the vessel delivered its cargo to an adjacent single-point mooring facility owned by Bharat Petroleum Corp. The 'Kartha', which issued signals showing Sikka as destination on Dec. 31, 2025, was now destined to the nearby port of Vadinar and arrived at the Rosneft Nayara Refinery on Jan 6, 2026. At least three tankers carrying nearly 2.2 million barrels of Urals were indicating Reliance’s port and plant as destination. Reliance reiterated on Jan 6 that the report on oil destined for Jamnagar was completely false. The refinery has not received any cargo of Russian oil in approximately the past three weeks and was not expecting any Russian crude oil deliveries in January. A third tanker, the 'Vokki', was sailing off Oman and still indicating Sikka as its destination.

The "Seamagic" was inbound to Bermuda in order to disembark a 41-year-old Filipino male crew member for medical reasons on June 12, 2018. The vessel was due off the east end in the night for the patient transfer ashore via pilot boat. The tanker was enroute from Ust-Luga to Houston.
