Vessels on Sanctions Lists Seen at Fremantle

None of the 50 vessels our AIS feed observed within 25 nm of Fremantle between 29 Apr 2026 and 5 Aug 2026 broadcast an IMO number on the OFAC, EU, UK or UN sanctions list today. The feed saw only part of the traffic, so this does not mean no listed vessel called here. The feed has delivered no positions since 5 Aug 2026, so these figures will not change until it resumes.

Regional Risk Context — Indian Ocean

Between 29 Apr 2026 and 5 Aug 2026, ArcNautical's AIS feed observed 50 distinct vessels at Fremantle, with Cargo making up 59% of those with a ship-type code — lower than the Indian Ocean regional average of 68%. Routes serving Fremantle in Australia 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.

Port State Control Context

Fremantle falls under the Tokyo MoU. The Tokyo Memorandum of Understanding (Asia-Pacific) maintains the most active publicly-available regional PSC programme. Across the last 24 months, the Tokyo MoU detention dataset records 5,577 distinct vessel detentions (sourced from OpenSanctions, as of 2026-10-04). Vessel-level detention probability is computed by ArcNautical using flag performance, vessel age, deficiency history, and ownership opacity.
