Russia has carried out its first ship-to-ship (STS) transfer of liquefied natural gas (LNG) 🥇 using so-called “shadow fleet” vessels, teaming up with a Chinese gas carrier.

Satellite images and partial AIS data suggest that the transfer took place off the coast of Malaysia on October 18, 2025 between 👉 the 170,471-cbm Perle and 👉 the 145,000-cbm CCH Gas.

The move marks a new phase in Russia’s efforts to move energy exports outside Western oversight and sanctions. Perle was carrying cargo from Gazprom’s Portovaya LNG plant in the Baltic Sea 🏭. The U.S. sanctioned the facility in January 2025 and Gazprom has since then been unable to find any foreign buyers for its supercooled gas.
