Lost ship had a checkered maintenance history
The 'Noah Satu', which sank after an engine room fire as it transited off the coast of Tuban with a cargo of corn, headed for the port of Ciwandan, had a checkered maintenance history, including a long list of past inspection deficiencies. Australian officials identified a heightened safety risk aboard the 'Noah Satu' and banned the ship in 2016. After the vessel failed two port state control inspections in the span of a year, the Australian Maritime Safety Authority prohibited the 'Noah Satu' for returning for at least 12 months. The vessel was never inspected by a foreign port state control team again, and AIS data showed that it has only traded within Indonesia since at least 2020.
