GINGA TIGER — Tanker · IMO 9278715

GINGA TIGER has not broadcast an AIS position for 86 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the East China Sea, on 14 Aug 2026, 00:45 UTC. It was sailing from RAS TANURA to AL JUBAIL. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

GINGA TIGER broadcasts MMSI 353491000 and is registered as IMO 9278715, with call sign HPQG . 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.

GINGA TIGER is classified as a tanker vessel registered under the PA 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 PA flag list at /flag/pa.
