OCTANS — Cargo · IMO 9303390

OCTANS has not broadcast an AIS position for 180 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the North Atlantic Ocean, on 10 May 2026, 14:45 UTC. It was sailing from PORT SAID to ST PETERSBURG. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

OCTANS broadcasts MMSI 636022083 and is registered as IMO 9303390, with call sign 5LHC4. 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.

OCTANS 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.

OCTANS is classed by NIPPON KAIJI KYOKAI (NKK), the classification society responsible for inspecting the vessel against safety, structural and operational rules. As a cargo, OCTANS sits in the same design class as the other cargos listed in the Similar Vessels section of the vessel page, or in the full cargo directory at /vessel-type/cargo. OCTANS has a gross tonnage of 19,885 GT.
