General Cargo Ship Ventura Detained in Setubal

The general cargo/multipurpose vessel VENTURA (IMO 9195731) has been detained at the Portuguese port of Setubal following a Port State Control inspection conducted on 03 Sep 2026 under the Paris MoU regime. Inspectors identified a total of 11 deficiencies during the check, three of which were assessed as detainable, prompting authorities to hold the vessel in port pending corrective action. The VENTURA, flagged in Antigua and Barbuda (AG), has a gross tonnage of 2,545. The ship is managed under the ISM Code by CCL Fleet Management Ltd. Port State Control inspections are carried out to verify compliance with international safety, environmental and labour conventions, with detentions issued when deficiencies are serious enough to pose a risk to the ship, crew or environment if the vessel were to continue operating. Vessels detained under the Paris MoU must rectify the identified deficiencies and undergo a follow-up inspection before being permitted to depart. No further details regarding the specific nature of the deficiencies or an expected release date have been disclosed.
