The Maersk Tankers vessel barred from a Spanish port in a Russian sanctions dispute will unload its cargo outside of Europe, the Danish company has confirmed.
The 51,600-dwt Maersk Magellan (built 2010) left Tarragona on Tuesday with a cargo of vacuum gasoil after the Spanish authorities ruled that any delivery would breach European Union sanctions.
Maersk Tankers, a tanker pool, said the cargo was of Turkish origin.
