The Panama-flagged general cargo/multipurpose vessel YUN HAI 316 (IMO 1079319) has been detained following a Port State Control inspection conducted under the Tokyo MOU at the port of Zhangjiagang on 08 Sep 2026. Inspectors identified six deficiencies during the examination, three of which were assessed as detainable, prompting authorities to hold the vessel in port pending rectification. The specific nature of the deficiencies was not disclosed in the inspection record. The YUN HAI 316 has a gross tonnage of 5,512 and a deadweight of 8,000 tonnes. The vessel is managed under the International Safety Management Code by Shanghai Shunying Shipping Co Ltd, which serves as the ISM company responsible for its safety and operational oversight. Detentions under the Tokyo MOU framework are issued when inspectors determine that deficiencies pose a risk to the safety of the ship, its crew, or the environment, and the vessel is required to remain in port until the issues are addressed to the satisfaction of Port State Control officers. No further details on the timeline for release or the corrective measures required have been made available at this time.
