General Cargo Ship ECO TREASURE Detained in Cuxhaven

The general cargo/multipurpose vessel ECO TREASURE (IMO 9938690) was detained following a Port State Control inspection conducted under the Paris MoU at the German port of Cuxhaven on 29 Jul 2026. Inspectors recorded a total of 14 deficiencies aboard the vessel, of which six were classified as detainable, prompting authorities to hold the ship in port until the issues are addressed and rectified to the satisfaction of Port State Control. The ECO TREASURE flies the Portuguese flag and has a gross tonnage of 7,887. The vessel is managed under the International Safety Management (ISM) Code by Briese Shortsea GmbH & Co KG. Details of the specific deficiencies identified during the inspection have not been disclosed. The detention adds the ECO TREASURE to the list of vessels flagged by Paris MoU inspectors this year for safety and operational shortcomings. Under Paris MoU procedures, detained vessels are barred from departing port until the responsible authorities confirm that the identified deficiencies have been corrected, with follow-up inspections typically required before release is granted.
