An Iranian oil tanker off Singapore is signaling a mooring point near Royal Dutch Shell Plc (RDSA)s refinery complex on Bukom Island as its next destination, according to data from AISLive compiled by Bloomberg.
The Delvar, a very large crude carrier owned by the National Iranian Tanker Co., has been moored in the Singapore Strait since Feb. 26, the data show. It is signaling Shell Bukom SPM, referring to a single-point mooring where ships load or unload. Destination data are usually entered by ships officers and are sometimes subject to errors. Mich Villar, a spokeswoman for Shell in Manila, said the company doesnt comment on trading, in an e-mailed response to questions.
Pulau Bukom is Shells largest refinery, with a crude- processing capacity of 500,000 barrels a day. The Delvar is sitting 15.5 meters (50.9 feet) deep in the water, compared with a maximum draft of 22.2 meters, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. VLCCs can carry about 2 million barrels of crude oil or refined products.
The ship stopped near the Indonesian island of Karimun on Feb. 23 with a draft of 19.7 meters before moving to the Singapore Strait, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The area is sometimes used to transfer cargoes between vessels.
Iran faces a European Union embargo on the purchase, transportation, financing and insurance of its oil from July 1 because of its nuclear program. The Delvar hasnt violated United Nations Security Council law or local regulations, the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore said Feb. 29.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
