The Bartok: Crew Feedback and Vessel Data

On December 1, 2025, the cargo vessel 'Bartok' faced detention in Immingham after inspectors identified a total of 19 deficiencies on board. Notably, four of these deficiencies were classified as serious and warranted the detention. The key issues included: 1) Life-saving Appliances – The launching arrangements for the rescue boats were not properly maintained. 2) Life-saving Appliances – The embarkation arrangements for the survival craft were also found to be inadequately maintained. 3) Fire Safety – There was a lack of familiarity regarding crew performance evaluation in fire safety protocols. 4) ISM Compliance – The vessel's ISM certificate did not meet the required standards. Fortunately, the 'Bartok' was released from detention on December 5 and subsequently set sail for Rotterdam, with an expected arrival date of December 6.
