Vessels on Sanctions Lists Seen at Gemlik

None of the 21 vessels our AIS feed observed within 25 nm of Gemlik 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 — Mediterranean Sea

Between 29 Apr 2026 and 5 Aug 2026, ArcNautical's AIS feed observed 21 distinct vessels at Gemlik, with Cargo making up 70% of those with a ship-type code — higher than the Mediterranean Sea regional average of 44%. Gemlik in Turkey operates in a semi-enclosed basin that carries approximately 20% of global seaborne trade. The Suez Canal is the single most critical chokepoint for Mediterranean-bound shipping, and disruptions there — from groundings, Houthi-driven diversions, or political shocks — force vessels onto the Cape of Good Hope routing, adding 10–14 days and substantial fuel cost. Libya's ongoing instability creates an active maritime security concern in the central Mediterranean, with oil terminals periodically subject to militia control. PSC under the Paris MOU is among the most rigorous globally; vessels with deficiencies face detention rates well above the global average at Mediterranean ports.

Port State Control Context

Turkey is a multi-MoU jurisdiction (its port states participate in more than one regional PSC programme). Vessel-level detention probability for calls at Gemlik is computed by ArcNautical's scoring engine using flag performance, vessel age, deficiency history, and ownership opacity rather than a regional aggregate.
