Frequently Asked Questions

Where is SAMSON right now?+
SAMSON has not broadcast an AIS position for 53 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the North Sea, on 17 Jul 2026, 07:17 UTC. It was sailing from ANTWERP to ANTWERP. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.
What are the identifiers for SAMSON?+

What type of ship is SAMSON?+
SAMSON is classified as a dredger vessel registered under the LU flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full dredger fleet at /vessel-type/military-special and full LU flag list at /flag/lu.
How can I see the live position of SAMSON?+

How often is SAMSON's position updated?+
AIS transponders broadcast position every 2 seconds when underway at high speed and up to every 3 minutes at anchor. The position you see refreshes whenever the ship is in range of a coastal AIS receiver or a satellite pass — typically seconds in coastal waters and minutes offshore.
