# GUR Shadow Fleet — Companies

One row per company (~1,500) that appears as a ship owner, commercial manager or safety manager of a shadow-fleet vessel — typically the single-vessel shell structures in jurisdictions like Hong Kong and the Seychelles that obscure beneficial ownership. Carries the company IMO id, name, country, the role(s) it plays and the vessels it is tied to. Non-spatial plain Parquet.
