Check Who Controls the Vessel,Before You Commit.

Before you fix, finance or acquire, you need to know who controls the vessel, where it has traded, and whether its identity holds up against the record. SolarisTech assembles that picture from technical and open sources and hands it to you as evidence, each item sourced and dated. The determination stays with you.

What's Included

  • Ownership and control chain

    Registered owner, bareboat charterer where recorded, commercial and technical managers, and the corporate layers behind them, traced as far as the available records allow.

  • Flag and registry history

    Current flag, previous flags, the dates of each change, and any pattern of rapid or repeated re-registration.

  • Trading history and port call patterns

    Recorded voyages, ports and areas of operation over the period you specify, with gaps and irregularities in the record identified.

  • Vessel identity checks

    IMO number, name history, call sign and registry particulars, checked for consistency between the identity presented to you and the identity in the record.

  • AIS behaviour review

    Transmission gaps, position inconsistencies and ship-to-ship activity apparent from the data available for the period reviewed.

  • Designation list matching

    Name and identifier matching for the vessel, the owner and the management chain against the public designation lists published by the sanctions authorities you tell us are relevant, including the US OFAC Specially Designated Nationals list, the UK Sanctions List, the EU consolidated list and the UN Security Council Consolidated List. We record what the lists say on the date we check them.

  • A sourced written file

    One document. Every finding attributed to the record it came from, with the date of the source and the date of the check, so your file shows what was known and when.
