None of the 10 vessels our AIS feed observed within 25 nm of Port of Spain 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.

Between 29 Apr 2026 and 5 Aug 2026, ArcNautical's AIS feed observed 10 distinct vessels at Port of Spain, with Cargo making up 40% of those with a ship-type code — higher than the Caribbean Sea regional average of 18%. Port of Spain in Trinidad and Tobago operates within a strategic crossroads connecting North and South American trade with the Panama Canal, Gulf of Mexico energy complex, and transatlantic routes. Hurricane season (June 1 – November 30) is the dominant natural hazard; category 4 and 5 systems generate winds above 130 knots and storm surges that devastate port infrastructure. Track forecasting has improved, but rapid intensification remains difficult to predict beyond 48–72 hours. Venezuela sanctions represent a significant compliance challenge for any vessel operating in the basin — the US has maintained comprehensive sanctions against Venezuela's oil sector since 2019, and the framework is modified frequently through general and specific licenses. Vessels with prior Venezuelan port calls face enhanced OFAC scrutiny.

Port of Spain falls under the Caribbean MoU. The Caribbean Memorandum of Understanding does not publish a public bulk detention feed. Member states inspect under a harmonised regime aligned with the Tokyo and Paris MoU targeting factors. Vessel-level detention probability is computed by ArcNautical using flag-state performance and on-board condition signals.
