On Thursday, in a statement Indonesia’s navy said, it had seized two tankers carrying crude palm oil, palm olein and methanol for want of paperwork.

The operation took place a day before a ban on palm oil export took effect.

“MT World Progress violated vessel specifications in its travel document, while the other ship, MT Annabelle carried methanol without a permit,” said Indonesia’s navy.

MT World Progress was traveling from Dumai on Sumatra island towards India carrying 34,854.3 tonnes of palm olein, while MT Annabelle was seized off Borneo island, heading to Shajrah in the United Arab Emirates, said the statement.
