🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia
Persian Gulf · Multi-Purpose Port
Vessels calling at Jubail in Saudi Arabia operate in the most strategically contested maritime chokepoint in the world. Roughly one-third of seaborne oil transits the Strait of Hormuz adjacent to the port, and the Joint War Committee maintains listed-area designations covering this waterway. Iran's IRGCN has a documented history of detaining foreign-flagged tankers here, and drone and missile strikes on commercial shipping have become a recurring feature since 2019. Beyond kinetic threats, extreme heat, sandstorms, and a congested traffic separation scheme add operational complexity. Sanctions screening for any vessel with Iranian-trade exposure is mandatory — ArcNautical cross-references ownership chains against OFAC, UN, and EU lists before a voyage is committed.
No port-call data observed at Jubail in the last 180 days. ArcNautical's AIS coverage focuses on the world's commercial shipping lanes; smaller or specialised ports may not register sufficient traffic for a meaningful breakdown.
Saudi Arabia is a multi-MoU jurisdiction (its port states participate in more than one regional PSC programme). Vessel-level detention probability for calls at Jubail is computed by ArcNautical's scoring engine using flag performance, vessel age, deficiency history, and ownership opacity rather than a regional aggregate.
