Complete Maritime Profile & Reviews of Darya-Shaan

The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) has officially grounded the 'Darya Shaan' for a period of 180 days due to critical safety and maintenance infractions. The vessel has been prohibited from entering Australian waters following its failure to disclose significant defects in its main engine and auxiliary machinery. During an inspection on April 26, 2024, at the Port of Melbourne, AMSA officials uncovered a range of alarming maintenance issues. Among the findings were critical faults in the main engine and its monitoring system, with particular focus on a malfunctioning engine room alarm system and defective starting arrangements for both generators. The vessel was noted to be poorly maintained, evident from the 19 identified deficiencies that emerged during the survey. Furthermore, the safety management system on board was deemed ineffective in upholding necessary safety standards. According to AMSA, the vessel operator, Anglo-Eastern Ship Management, placed both the crew's safety and the surrounding Australian marine environment at considerable risk by neglecting to report these crucial defects. AMSA stated that the detention of the vessel could have been avoided if proper reporting protocols had been adhered to by the operator.
