🇬🇪 Georgia
Black Sea · Container Terminal
Poti in Georgia sits in the most volatile maritime environment in the world. Since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the Black Sea has been a theatre of active naval conflict — mine strikes, missile attacks on port infrastructure, and interference with commercial shipping are a daily operational reality. The Joint War Committee has designated extensive portions of the basin as a listed area, and war risk premiums have escalated dramatically. Russia's Black Sea Fleet has attacked Ukrainian port infrastructure and commercial grain vessels with cruise missiles and drones; the UN-brokered Black Sea Grain Initiative collapse left operators without a formal de-confliction mechanism. Access through the Bosphorus and Dardanelles is controlled by Turkey under the Montreux Convention.
Routed sea distances from Poti to the principal global hubs, computed by ArcNautical's routing engine — around land and through the canals a ship actually uses, not great-circle.
No port-call data observed at Poti in the last 180 days. This reflects the reach of the terrestrial AIS network behind this page — coverage is densest in Northwest Europe and thins elsewhere — and is not a statement about traffic at Poti.
Georgia is a multi-MoU jurisdiction (its port states participate in more than one regional PSC programme). Vessel-level detention probability for calls at Poti is computed by ArcNautical's scoring engine using flag performance, vessel age, deficiency history, and ownership opacity rather than a regional aggregate.
