NORDIC LIGHT — Tanker · IMO 9436446

NORDIC LIGHT has not broadcast an AIS position for 7 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the Indian Ocean, on 31 Oct 2026, 01:14 UTC. It was sailing from FORCADOS TERMINAL to LOME. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

NORDIC LIGHT broadcasts MMSI 538003862 and is registered as IMO 9436446, with call sign V7TQ7. 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.

NORDIC LIGHT is classified as a tanker vessel registered under the MH 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 MH flag list at /flag/mh.

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.

NORDIC LIGHT is classed by NIPPON KAIJI KYOKAI (NKK), the classification society responsible for inspecting the vessel against safety, structural and operational rules. As a tanker, NORDIC LIGHT 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. NORDIC LIGHT has a gross tonnage of 81,493 GT.
