🇮🇱 Israel
Mediterranean Sea · Container Terminal
IL has an elevated Country Instability Index (75/100). Active conflict, governance disruption, or proxy-war involvement create operational and reputational risk for vessel operators.
In the last 180 days, ArcNautical recorded 40 vessel arrivals at Ashdod, with Cargo accounting for 47% of port calls — in line with the Mediterranean Sea regional average of 44%. Ashdod in Israel 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.
Across 40 distinct vessel arrivals, 38 carry a confirmed AIS ship-type code. The most common categories at Ashdod:
Ashdod falls under the Mediterranean MoU. The Mediterranean Memorandum of Understanding does not publish a public bulk detention feed. Member states (Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Tunisia) operate under harmonised PSC protocols. Vessel-level detention probability is computed by ArcNautical using flag-state performance and on-board condition signals.
