A company that offers insurance to the burgeoning shadow fleet of oil tankers — including one that ran aground off the coast of Indonesia — was shut down by the Marshall Islands, the firm's only published address. The Continental Steamship Owners Mutual Protecting & Indemnity Association Ltd. was "forcibly dissolved" by the Pacific island nation, according to International Registries, Inc. Continental offered insurance and took on risk, violating rules governing non-resident entities, a spokesperson for the Virginia-based registry group said.
