ELKA GLORY is a 2002 tank ship. The Coast Guard has recorded 10 inspections since 2016, most recently in December 2020, along with 2 deficiencies and 2 operational controls.
Records from 2016 to 2020. Most recent: operational control imposed, 21 December 2020.
The 10 inspections in the strip above, split by the kind of activity the US
Coast Guard recorded. Years with a record are calendar years in which a record exists, not
years in service. What Maury does not do.
This record may be incomplete: the most recent inspection recorded for this vessel was 6 years ago. Maury shows what the Coast Guard recorded, not whether the vessel has been inspected since, is still in service, or what condition it is in. Coast Guard record current through 23 August 2026, retrieved 5 September 2026 from PSIX. Every field on this page was recorded by the Coast Guard. Records for the Tank Ship class in Maury's sources begin in 2016.

Ownership record
