Recent Port Calls (AIS)
No AIS port-call data captured for CESARIA in the last 180 days. Sanctioned vessels frequently transmit AIS irregularly or disable transponders entirely — this absence is itself a vetting signal documented in the OFAC, EU, and IMO sanctions evasion advisories.
Flag State Risk Analysis: PW
CESARIA is flagged to PW, which holds Black List (high risk) placement with a Paris MOU detention rate of 11.2% (Black List) and a Tokyo MOU detention rate of 11.5% (Black List). Black list flags represent the highest risk category in port state control assessments, indicating persistent and systemic deficiencies in the flag state's maritime administration and oversight of its registered fleet. Vessels under black list flags face the most intensive targeting for inspection and the highest probability of detention at ports worldwide.
The black list designation has material implications for vessel insurability, chartering prospects, and port access. Many P&I clubs and hull underwriters apply surcharges or exclusions for black list-flagged vessels, and major terminal operators may refuse berthing to vessels with recent detention records. ArcNautical's vetting algorithm assigns maximum flag performance scores to black list flags, which significantly impacts the composite vetting grade. Combined with sanctions screening across OFAC SDN, EU, and UN databases and ownership transparency analysis via GLEIF, the platform provides a comprehensive risk assessment for vessels operating under high-risk flags.

They are the primary identifier used in sanctions screening, port state control, and maritime compliance.
How is the vessel vetting grade calculated?
ArcNautical's vetting grade (A through E) is a composite score based on five weighted factors: PSC detention history (30%), flag state performance (25%), ownership transparency (20%), vessel age (15%), and inspection recency (10%). Data is sourced from Paris MOU, Tokyo MOU, GLEIF corporate registry, and OFAC/EU/UN sanctions databases.
