I'm leaning towards Golden Brilliant right now.
Now that's an interesting track.... ImageImage
Digging continues, ASPHALT PRINCESS, owned by PRIME TANKERS LLC. In July 2019 the M/T Riah was seized by Iran, owner is the same.

UK statement of “High Likely” is interesting as it shows a probability assessment score of 80/90% on the PHIA. This is with the evidence presented to them from other countries. The response expected is obviously unknown.
But for the UK to be this far up the chart on its assessment and publicly announce it as Iran is behind the attack does suggest a certain level of intel on the situation. The question on my mind right now is, will it be in the maritime domain or not. If we look at the broader…

Of course as always it’s not conclusive this is the vessel, but give this a few hours and it’ll probably be confirmed by a random source 😂
