🇸🇴 Somalia
Indian Ocean · General Cargo Port
Somalia is under a UN Security Council arms embargo plus al-Shabaab-related designations.
Routes serving Mogadishu in Somalia cross a basin where the risk profile varies dramatically by sub-region. The western Indian Ocean — particularly waters off Somalia, the Gulf of Aden, and the Mozambique Channel — has been historically affected by piracy; while the 2011–2012 peak has subsided, the underlying drivers persist and periodic attacks are still reported. Monsoon timing (southwest June–September, northeast December–March) influences both piracy seasonality and commercial routing. Cyclone activity in the Bay of Bengal (April–May, October–December) and Arabian Sea (May–June, October–November) can produce sustained 100-knot winds. ArcNautical's stochastic scoring uses Monte Carlo to capture this seasonal uncertainty.
No port-call data observed at Mogadishu 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.
Somalia is a multi-MoU jurisdiction (its port states participate in more than one regional PSC programme). Vessel-level detention probability for calls at Mogadishu is computed by ArcNautical's scoring engine using flag performance, vessel age, deficiency history, and ownership opacity rather than a regional aggregate.
