Portuguese-Flagged AMADEUS PEARL Detained in Bayonne

The general cargo/multipurpose vessel AMADEUS PEARL (IMO 9995844) was detained following a Port State Control inspection carried out in Bayonne on 03 Feb 2026, under the Paris MoU regime. The inspection identified two deficiencies in total, one of which was assessed as detainable, resulting in the vessel being held in port pending rectification. The vessel, flagged in Portugal, has a gross tonnage of 2,518. Its ISM company is listed as Lauterjung Shipmanagement GmbH. Port State Control inspections under the Paris MoU are designed to verify that foreign vessels calling at member ports comply with international safety, security and environmental standards. A detention is issued when inspectors determine that deficiencies found on board are serious enough to pose a risk to the safety of the ship, its crew, or the environment, requiring the vessel to remain in port until the issues are corrected and verified. No further details regarding the nature of the detainable deficiency or the expected duration of the detention have been disclosed. The vessel will remain under detention in Bayonne until the relevant authorities confirm that corrective actions have been completed and the ship is cleared to resume operations.
