About HMM Algeciras & AIS Marine Navigation

The Container Ship HMM Algeciras (IMO: 9863297) operates in commercial maritime service. Commercial ships of this scale are mandated by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) SOLAS Chapter V regulations to continuously broadcast Automatic Identification System (AIS) telemetry.

Real-time positions are captured by terrestrial receiver base stations when sailing near coastlines and through low-Earth orbit satellite constellations when transiting open oceans, providing maritime supply chain transparency for freight forwarders and shippers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often does satellite AIS update HMM Algeciras position?

Terrestrial AIS updates every few seconds in coastal and harbor waters. When transiting deep oceans, satellite AIS receivers typically refresh positions every 15 to 60 minutes depending on orbital constellation passes.

What is an IMO number (9863297)?

An IMO number is a unique permanent 7-digit identification number assigned to a ship hull under the International Maritime Organization convention. Unlike vessel names or flags which can change, the IMO number remains permanently linked to the hull from shipbuilding to scrap.
