The SVR VENUS, flagged in Antigua and Barbuda (AG), has a gross tonnage of 2,844. The vessel's ISM Company is listed as Planet Gemi Isletmeciligi AS. Port State Control detentions under the Paris MoU are issued when deficiencies are deemed serious enough to pose a risk to safety, the environment, or compliance with international maritime conventions. Vessels subject to such detentions are typically required to rectify the identified faults and undergo a follow-up inspection before being permitted to resume operations. No further details regarding the specific nature of the deficiencies or an expected release date have been disclosed. The case adds to the record of vessels flagged for non-compliance within the Paris MoU region in 2026.
