The list includes Fesco Moneron (Fesco Moneron), Fesco Magadan (Fesco Magadan) and Sv. Nikolay. In the USA, their ownership is attributed to subsidiaries of Promsvyazbank and Alfa-Bank. According to the Marinetraffic vessel tracking service, Fesco Moneron is currently located in Nagayev Bay near Magadan, Fesco Magadan is off the coast of Japan, and Sv. Nikolai — in the Sea of Azov.
