Regional Risk Context — Southeast Asia

Voyages from Sihanoukville in Cambodia navigate the world's busiest shipping lanes, anchored by the Strait of Malacca — a 550-mile corridor through which roughly 100,000 vessels transit annually. The Malacca and Singapore Straits remain a persistent piracy hotspot, with ReCAAP recording dozens of incidents per year; most are low-level opportunistic theft at anchor, but the geographic concentration demands attention in any voyage risk model. Waters off eastern Sabah and the Sulu Sea present a more severe kidnap-for-ransom threat. PSC inspection regimes vary substantially across ASEAN members, and the Tokyo MOU detention data identifies which flags and vessel types face elevated scrutiny in the region.

Sea Distances

Routed sea distances from Sihanoukville to the principal global hubs, computed by ArcNautical's routing engine — around land and through the canals a ship actually uses, not great-circle.

Port State Control Context

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

Vessel Mix

No port calls were observed at Sihanoukville between 29 Apr 2026 and 5 Aug 2026. This reflects the reach of the terrestrial AIS network behind this page — coverage is densest in Northwest Europe and thins elsewhere — and is not a statement about traffic at Sihanoukville. The feed has delivered no positions since 5 Aug 2026, so these figures will not change until it resumes.
