This record may be incomplete: the most recent inspection recorded for this vessel was 8 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.

Every line above is a count of records the US Coast Guard wrote, or a date it recorded. A blank resolution means none was recorded in this data; it does not establish that a deficiency is outstanding. Years with a record are calendar years in which a record exists, not years in service. What Maury does not do.

Vessel history report

A report is not offered for this hull. Its record holds only 2 of the seven kinds of material a report is built from: inspections, deficiencies, operational controls, tow-unit appearances, casualty records, dimensions and documentation. That is a statement about the record, not about the vessel. What a sparse-record report looks like.

Issued 2 October 2018 Resolved
A vessel past its compliance date as outlined in 33 CFR 151.2035 must use one of the ballast water management methods listed in 33 CFR 151.2025, except that ballast water exchange (BWE) is not a permissible ballast water management strategy. This vessel has an extension letter that requires a compliance date of first scheduled dry-dock after March 1, 2016. Vessel entered dry-dock on March 14, 2016 and received hull survey credit on Safety Construction Certificate on March 20, 2016. No BWTS was installed and vessel has been conducting untreated BWE and discharging untreated ballast into U.S. waters; BWE is no longer a permissible BWM strategy for this vessel as it is past its compliance date for the purpose of U.S. regulations. 33 CFR 151.2035 40c
Action required: 40 - Rectify deficiencies prior to next US port after sailing foreign
Resolved 15 October 2018
Resolution: Received, reviewed and accepted CG Ballast Water Compliance Extention Letter sent from BW Fleet Management email stating the deficiency was rectified. The compliance date has been extended to 11 October 2019.

Issued 2 October 2018 Resolved
Where electrical equipment is installed in gas-dangerous spaces or zones as provided in 10.1.4, it should be to the satisfaction of the Administration and approved by the relevant authorities recognized by the Administration for operation in the flammable atmosphere concerned. Identified explosion proof lighting for two lights significantly cracked in deck store and one cracked explosion proof light in forward dry chemical powder room, verified both locations are located in gas dangerous zone plan located in cargo operations manual dated 2003.09.02. 74 SOLAS 14 VII/13.1 REF 1993 IGC/ 10.1.5.
Condition: Improper/Lack of Maintenance
Action required: 50 - Rectify deficiencies w/in 30 days
Due 2 November 2018
Resolved 18 December 2018

01 - Certificates & Documentation › 011 - Ships Certificates › Liquefied Gases in Bulk (ICoF/IGC Code)
Issued 2 October 2018 Resolved
The ambient design temperatures used in the design should be shown on the International Certificate of Fitness. The ambient temperatures are 5 degrees Celsius for air and 0 degrees Celsius for seawater [IGC 4.8.1] 74 SOLAS 14 VII/ 13.1, Reference [withheld] IGC/4.8.1]. U.S. regulations require lower ambient design temperatures for both U.S. and foreign-flagged vessels: the insulation for a cargo tank without a secondary barrier must be designed for the cargo tank at the design temperature and for a vessel operating in any waters in the world, except Alaskan waters, for the ambient cold condition of air at negative eighteen degrees Celsius and seawater at zero degrees Celsius [46 CFR 154.466(a)(1)]. Vessel's Certificate of Fitness, no. SNG 1600322, lists ambient design temperatures as 45 degrees Celsius air and 32 degrees Celsius water. This is incorrect and meets neither the international nor the U.S. requirements.
Action required: 50 - Rectify deficiencies w/in 30 days
Due 2 November 2018
Resolved 3 October 2018
Resolution: Vessel provided updated Certificate of Fitness SNG 1600322/A1 reflecting corrected ambient design temperatures.
07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Maintenance of Fire protection systems
Issued 2 October 2018 Resolved
Maintenance testing and inspections shall be carried out based on the guidelines developed by the Organization and in a manner having due regard to ensuring the reliability of fire-fighting systems and appliances. The maintenance plan shall be kept on board the ship and shall be available for inspection whenever required by the Administration. According to ship's job description EXS0011A for powder fire fighting system 24 month routine, a test sample of dry chemical powder for moisture content should be done. PSCOs found that during the last 24 month routine maintenance a test sample of dry chemical powder for moisture content was not completed during the maintenance on 20FEB2017. The last sample test for moisture content was 04MAR15, which is beyond the 24 month routine maintenance required by ship's maintenance plan. 74 SOLAS 14 II-2/ 14.2.2.

Action required: 50 - Rectify deficiencies w/in 30 days
Due 2 November 2018
Resolved 10 October 2018
