General Cargo Ship Langeoog Detained in Ploce

The general cargo/multipurpose vessel LANGEOOG (IMO 9506136) was detained on 14 Aug 2026 following a Port State Control inspection at the port of Ploce, according to a Paris MoU detention report. Inspectors recorded a total of 10 deficiencies aboard the 4,591 gross tonnage vessel, four of which were classified as detainable, prompting authorities to hold the ship until the issues are rectified. The report did not specify the exact nature of the deficiencies identified during the inspection. LANGEOOG sails under the flag of Antigua and Barbuda and is managed under the ISM Code by Sunship Schiffahrtskontor KG. The detention was carried out under the framework of the Paris Memorandum of Understanding on Port State Control, which coordinates inspections of foreign-flagged vessels calling at ports across Europe and the North Atlantic to verify compliance with international safety, security and environmental standards. Under Paris MoU procedures, vessels found with detainable deficiencies must undergo corrective action and follow-up inspection before being permitted to resume operations. No timeline for the release of the LANGEOOG has been announced.
