Maersk Nuba Container Ship Detained in Bremerhaven

The container vessel MAERSK NUBA (IMO 9356115) was detained in Bremerhaven, Germany, following a Port State Control inspection conducted on 13 Aug 2026 under the Paris MoU regime. Inspectors identified a total of five deficiencies during the check, three of which were classified as detainable, prompting authorities to hold the vessel in port until the issues are rectified. The Hong Kong-flagged ship has a gross tonnage of 25,904 and is managed under the ISM Code by Maersk A/S. Detentions under the Paris MoU framework occur when inspectors determine that deficiencies pose a risk to the safety, health of those on board, or the environment, or when they indicate a vessel is not in compliance with applicable international conventions. The specific nature of the deficiencies found aboard MAERSK NUBA has not been disclosed in the available inspection summary. The vessel will remain detained in Bremerhaven until the identified deficiencies are addressed to the satisfaction of Port State Control authorities and a follow-up inspection confirms compliance, allowing the ship to be released to continue its voyage.
