Palau-Flagged General Cargo Ship Detained in Rijeka

The general cargo/multipurpose vessel SEA EAGLE (IMO 9115975) has been detained by Port State Control authorities in Rijeka following an inspection conducted on 02 Dec 2025, under the Mediterranean Memorandum of Understanding (Med MoU) regime. Inspectors identified a total of 26 deficiencies on the 2,567 gross tonnage vessel, of which 13 were classified as detainable, prompting authorities to hold the ship in port until the issues are rectified. The vessel sails under the flag of Palau and is managed under the ISM Code by Dragos Shipping Ltd. Port State Control inspections are carried out to verify compliance with international safety, environmental and labour conventions, and vessels found with serious deficiencies may be detained until corrective action is taken and verified by authorities. The high number of deficiencies recorded during this inspection points to multiple areas of non-conformity aboard the SEA EAGLE. No further details regarding the specific nature of the deficiencies or an expected release date for the vessel have been disclosed.
