VOS HADES — SAR · IMO 9552264

VOS HADES has not broadcast an AIS position for 227 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the North Sea, on 27 Mar 2026, 05:36 UTC. It was bound for FPF1 STELLA FIELD. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

VOS HADES broadcasts MMSI 235104474 and is registered as IMO 9552264, with call sign 2HKV9 . The MMSI is the radio identifier used by AIS; the IMO number stays with the ship for life and does not change with re-flagging or sale.

VOS HADES is classified as a sar vessel registered under the GB flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full sar fleet at /vessel-type/tug-pilot-vessel and full GB flag list at /flag/gb.
