GARNET EXPRESS — Tanker · IMO 9609639

GARNET EXPRESS has not broadcast an AIS position for 4 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the North Pacific Ocean, on 2 Nov 2026, 20:02 UTC. It was sailing from MIZUSHIMA to QUINTERO. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

GARNET EXPRESS broadcasts MMSI 538005163 and is registered as IMO 9609639, with call sign V7BL6. 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.

GARNET EXPRESS 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.

GARNET EXPRESS is classed by NIPPON KAIJI KYOKAI (NKK), the classification society responsible for inspecting the vessel against safety, structural and operational rules.
