BBC DAKOTA — Cargo · IMO 9388900

BBC DAKOTA has not broadcast an AIS position for 85 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the Gulf of Mexico, on 14 Aug 2026, 02:27 UTC. It was sailing from CHITTAGONG to SINGAPORE. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

BBC DAKOTA broadcasts MMSI 636092890 and is registered as IMO 9388900, with call sign D5SN7. 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.

BBC DAKOTA 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.

BBC DAKOTA is classed by GERMANISCHER LLOYD, the classification society responsible for inspecting the vessel against safety, structural and operational rules. As a cargo, BBC DAKOTA 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. BBC DAKOTA has a gross tonnage of 9,611 GT.
