Routes serving Chittagong in Bangladesh cross a basin where the risk profile varies dramatically by sub-region. The western Indian Ocean — particularly waters off Somalia, the Gulf of Aden, and the Mozambique Channel — has been historically affected by piracy; while the 2011–2012 peak has subsided, the underlying drivers persist and periodic attacks are still reported. Monsoon timing (southwest June–September, northeast December–March) influences both piracy seasonality and commercial routing. Cyclone activity in the Bay of Bengal (April–May, October–December) and Arabian Sea (May–June, October–November) can produce sustained 100-knot winds. ArcNautical's stochastic scoring uses Monte Carlo to capture this seasonal uncertainty.
Routed sea distances from Chittagong to the principal global hubs, computed by ArcNautical's routing engine — around land and through the canals a ship actually uses, not great-circle.
Chittagong falls under the Indian Ocean MoU. The Indian Ocean Memorandum of Understanding does not publish a public bulk detention feed. PSC inspection regimes across India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, the Maldives, Mauritius, Iran, and the African Indian Ocean states vary in rigour. ArcNautical evaluates vessel-level detention probability using flag performance, age, deficiency history, and ownership opacity signals.
Limited port-call data — fewer than 10 distinct vessels observed at Chittagong between 29 Apr 2026 and 5 Aug 2026. ArcNautical does not publish a vessel-type breakdown for low-traffic ports to avoid statistically misleading percentages. The feed has delivered no positions since 5 Aug 2026, so these figures will not change until it resumes.
