One vessel, every compliance signal in one place: sanctions exposure path, composite risk, dark-fleet behaviour, flag history and safety record.
No sanctions exposure was found, but the composite risk read is elevated. See the breakdown below.
Sanctions exposure screens the hull and its ownership chain against official OFAC, EU, UN and UK designations, then propagates a sanctioned owner or parent down to the vessels it controls. The composite risk read blends age, flag register, port-state detentions, dark-fleet behaviour and sanctions exposure, weighted by how much evidence is present. Every signal shows its own evidence. This is decision support for a compliance review, not a legal determination.
Composite Risk
Multiple adverse factors, or a hard ship-specific signal, lift this hull above the fleet norm.
A coverage-weighted blend of the 2 components we could read for this hull — the weights renormalise over only the components present, so a thin read is never inflated and a hull is never credited a “safe 0” for a signal it has no row for. This headline is flagged low-confidence (a thin or structural-only read) and should not be treated as a verdict. Higher means riskier. Derived in-house from government-open port-State-control, flag, sanctions and our own vessel data; weight it by the coverage above.
Compliance
On 06 October 2021, the bulk carrier "FEDERAL ELBE" reported one of its crew members as having been seriously injured when dropped from the bosun chair off the seaway landing boom onto the wharf at the upper wall of lock No 8 of the Welland Canal in Port Colborne, ON. The crew member was transported to a hospital for treatment.
On 29 November 2020, the bulk carrier "FEDERAL ELBE" reported problems with its main engine starting air system while transiting the upper lock (No. 4) at Beauharnois, QC. The vessel exited the lock and moored at the upper lock wall. The crew carried out repairs and the vessel later resumed its voyage.
On 18 August 2018, the bulk carrier "FEDERAL ELBE" sustained a main engine failure, caused by a malfunction of the cooling system N of Anticosti Island, QC. After repairs were made, the vessel continued its voyage.
On 16 August 2016, the bulk carrier "FEDERAL ELBE" reported the failure of its propulsion telegraph while manoeuvering at Lock #4 in Beauharnois, QC. The crew carried out the repairs and the vessel resumed its voyage.
On 31 July 2016, the bulk carrier "FEDERAL ELBE" reported the failure of one main engine fuel injector and proceeded to the anchorage off Prescott, ON. The crew carried out the repairs and the vessel resumed its voyage.
On 02 May 2014, the MV "FEDERAL ELBE" struck a buoy whilst departing Thunder Bay, ON. The buoy has been replaced. No injuries or pollution reported.
On 17 July 2013, the M/V "FEDERAL ELBE" nearly collided with M/V "BAIE ST. PAUL" when both vessels were manoeuvring at section 52 of the Port of Quebec, Quebec. No injuries or pollution reported.
The downbound vessel "FEDERAL ELBE" lost its main propulsion while in Belmouth curve. Propulsion was regained shortly thereafter.
