Recent Port Calls (AIS)

Flag State Risk Analysis: BB
HARMONY is flagged to BB, which holds Grey List (medium risk) placement with a Paris MOU detention rate of 2.2% (White List) and a Tokyo MOU detention rate of 2.9% (Grey List). Grey list flags indicate elevated port state control scrutiny compared to white list registries, with detention rates typically 2-3 times higher than the best-performing flags. Vessels under grey list flags face more frequent targeting for inspection at ports within both MOU regimes.
BB-flagged vessels are subject to heightened compliance scrutiny in chartering and insurance contexts. The elevated detention rates reflect a pattern of deficiencies identified during port state control inspections, which may include structural issues, safety equipment failures, or crew competency concerns. ArcNautical's vessel vetting algorithm weights flag state performance at 25% of the composite vetting score, alongside PSC detention history (30%), vessel age (15%), inspection recency (10%), and ownership transparency (20%). For vessels flagged to BB, the elevated flag score is one component of a multi-factor risk assessment that includes real-time sanctions screening and corporate ownership analysis.
