Hong Kong-flagged tanker, Sea Horse,, tanker carrying fuel originally bound for Cuba, diverts to Trinidad, shipping data shows

The Hong Kong-flagged tanker Sea Horse is heading to the western coast of Cuba and is expected to arrive this weekend or Monday. Russian Anatoly Kolodkin, carrying 700,000 barrels of crude oil, departed from the Russian coast of Primorsk and was en route to Cuba.

The ship Sea Horse halted its voyage Wednesday and is now drifting in the North Atlantic Ocean, according to vessel-tracking data. The tanker is likely carrying 200,000 barrels of Russian gas oil, based on shipping analytics from Kpler Ltd., whose lead analyst previously identified the cargo following a ship-to-ship transfer off Cyprus.
