BRIGHT FUTURE — Tanker · IMO 9791872

BRIGHT FUTURE has not broadcast an AIS position for 12 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the South Atlantic Ocean, on 28 Oct 2026, 01:09 UTC. It was sailing from HOUSTON to TRAMANDAI. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

BRIGHT FUTURE broadcasts MMSI 253805000 and is registered as IMO 9791872, with call sign LXGC. 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.

BRIGHT FUTURE is classified as a tanker vessel registered under the LU flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full tanker fleet at /vessel-type/tanker and full LU flag list at /flag/lu.

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.

As a tanker, BRIGHT FUTURE sits in the same design class as the other tankers listed in the Similar Vessels section of the vessel page, or in the full tanker directory at /vessel-type/tanker.
