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 3 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. 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.
Transparency
Behavioural flags raised against this vessel, each shown with the raw evidence behind it. Derived in-house from data we are entitled to publish; informational, not a determination of wrongdoing.

Signals are a current-state view: a flag clears once the vessel stops tripping its detector. These are screening indicators, not a substitute for your own due diligence.
Compliance
On 25 September 2021, the bulk carrier "OCEAN CASTLE", while under the conduct of a pilot, struck the dock while berthing with the assistance of 2 tugs in Oshawa, ON. Damage to the vessel and the dock was reported.
On 22 June 2021, the bulk carrier "OCEAN CASTLE" reported striking the lower ship arrester cable in the St. Lambert Lock off Saint-Lambert, QC. The St. Lawrence Seaway was closed for approximately 12 hours while the ship arrester cable was repaired. There was no damage to the vessel and no pollution.
On 26 May 2020, the bulk carrier "OCEAN CASTLE" reported the failure of its main engine reversing system whilst transiting the Iroquois Lock, ON. The crew carried out repairs and the vessel resumed its intended voyage.
On 28 June 2019, the bulk carrier "OCEAN CASTLE" sustained a main engine failure and anchored on Lake Saint-Louis, QC off Pointe Fortier. The crew carried out the repairs and the vessel resumed its voyage.
On 18 July 2016, the bulk carrier "OCEAN CASTLE" sustained a main engine failure and consequently had to stop at sea for the crew to carry out repairs off Newfoundland. The vessel later resumed its voyage. No injuries or pollution reported.
