Panama-Flagged General Cargo Ship GAHURA Detained in Rijeka

The general cargo/multipurpose vessel GAHURA (IMO 9053907) has been detained at the port of Rijeka following a Port State Control inspection conducted under the Paris MoU on 15 Dec 2025 region, specifically the Mediterranean MoU (Med MoU) framework. Inspectors recorded a total of 17 deficiencies during the examination of the 3,564 gross tonnage ship, of which 10 were classified as detainable, prompting authorities to hold the vessel in port pending corrective action. The Panama-flagged ship is managed under the ISM Code by HANEM DENIZCILIK VE YAPI TIC. The scale of the detainable deficiencies relative to the total findings indicates significant safety or operational shortcomings identified by Med MoU inspectors. Vessels detained under Port State Control regimes are typically required to rectify all outstanding deficiencies and undergo a follow-up inspection before being permitted to resume commercial operations. No further details regarding the specific nature of the deficiencies or an expected release date have been disclosed. The detention adds the GAHURA to the list of vessels currently held under Med MoU inspection protocols, which monitor compliance with international maritime safety, pollution prevention, and crew welfare standards across signatory ports.
