ML HERON — Cargo · IMO 9700043

ML HERON has not broadcast an AIS position for 12 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the North Pacific Ocean, on 27 Oct 2026, 09:48 UTC. It was sailing from CAM PHA ANCH to CHANCAY. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

ML HERON broadcasts MMSI 636019542 and is registered as IMO 9700043, with call sign D5UZ2. 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.

ML HERON is classified as a cargo vessel registered under the LR flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full cargo fleet at /vessel-type/cargo and full LR flag list at /flag/lr.

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.
