🇩🇴 Dominican Republic
Caribbean Sea · Container Terminal
In the last 180 days, ArcNautical recorded 16 vessel arrivals at Haina, with Cargo accounting for 33% of port calls — higher than the Caribbean Sea regional average of 16%. Haina in Dominican Republic 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.
Across 16 distinct vessel arrivals, 15 carry a confirmed AIS ship-type code. The most common categories at Haina:
Dominican Republic is a multi-MoU jurisdiction (its port states participate in more than one regional PSC programme). Vessel-level detention probability for calls at Haina is computed by ArcNautical's scoring engine using flag performance, vessel age, deficiency history, and ownership opacity rather than a regional aggregate.
