I'm Irish and I don't want alumina from Aughinish to be sent to a town in Siberia that is home to both a RUSAL aluminium smelter and an Iskander-M ballistic missile factory. #alumina22

Thank you all for your support so far. You've all done a great job boosting the #alumina22 cause. Keep in mind the shipments of alumina to russia continue at this moment of time. Please see my pinned post and email the commission and get it stopped. Thank you

I'm still shocked at the fact that 20 politicians at both a National and European level were lobbied by RUSAL. This was between 1 May. 2026 to 31 Aug. 2026 I don't think people full appreciate what were up against. Source below #alumina22 /1

At this moment of time, all the ships involved in the transport of alumina to russia are in fact managed by a shipping company based in Estonia. Given the attack in Estonia that was carried out by russia. Is this considered acceptable? #alumina22

Here's a sample of the companies that made purchases from ASK. In turn purchase aluminum from the RUSAL smelters that Aughinish Alumina supplies. As per the @OCCRP It includes the company that makes the gyroscope for the KH-101 as reported by the @ESCofUKRAINE #alumina22

A neat thing with historical Landsat data - you can go back to 25th of September 1983 and see the wispy high altitude clouds over North Dakota around 17:00 UTC, roughly 3-4 hours before the false alarm. On the left, the missile fields of Malmstrom overlaid on Landsat image from 26th of September.

A chemical tanker is enroute to Aughinish. It departed Buetzfleth, Stade, Germany. There is a Sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) manufacturing plant close to the jetty it departed from. This is used in the extraction of alumina from bauxtie. Is Germany ok with this? #alumina22 /1

Not a shadow fleet vessel, or sanctioned, but Cpt Georgios S (IMO: 9262936) is currently on its way from Murmansk to Iskenderun, Turkey, making what appears from globalfishingwatch.org data, to be its first trip through the Irish Sea, at least since 2012. 👋
Map showing globalfishingwatch.org tracks of Cpt Georgios S, from 2012 to a few days ago - no tracks are visible through the Irish Sea, although it has visited the Shannon Estuary numerous times.VesselFinder map showing CPT GEORGIOS S transiting the Irish Sea, a brief (~3 hour) slow down is visible between Northern Ireland and Scotland.

Wherever I expected DORRY wind up, it wasn't off Portugal. What a wild track.
AIS map showing track of vessel DORRY, which went north off the coast of Portugal, swung northwest of Ireland before turning south east, disappearing off AIS for days, only to show up heading southeast off the coast of Portugal.

The standard says a Class A set slows to one report every 3 minutes once she's set to anchored or moored, from every 2 to 10 seconds under way, so at anchor there's much less for a satellite to catch on a pass. Still twenty an hour though. I wouldn't put a full day on the rate.

Dorry, for whatever reason, has decided to go back southeast. I think C285 (Irish Air Corps C295 MSA) took a look

The shadow fleet has made themselves very scarce off the west coast of Ireland in line with President Trump's visit. It's baffling that with that type of power why does he enjoy being putin's fan girl?

Tanker Watch IE @galwaybaywatch.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
It would appear that the shadow fleet is decreasing off the west coast ahead of Trump's visit. DORRY has made a sudden turn to port and is heading west Earlier NORELLIA drifted for a bit off the coast of Clare. Let's see what its like when he arrives and leaves.
