MARAD maritime data & statistics (U.S.-flag fleet, vessel calls, trade)

The U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) Office of Policy and Plans publishes U.S.-flag fleet lists, a Fleet List Dashboard, a Weekly Coastal Report, vessel-call and containership reports, and waterborne foreign trade statistics by customs port on its data-reports pages.

Coverage

Fleet lists (U.S.-Flag Privately-Owned Fleet as of April 2025), a U.S. Fleet List Dashboard, a Weekly Coastal Report, Vessel Calls and Containership Report series, U.S. Waterborne Foreign Trade by Customs Ports (Excel, 2000–2017), and tanker-call data, per the checked data-reports pages. Several files are older vintages (2015–2017); the page returned HTTP 403 to a plain curl request and HTTP 200 in a full browser. Exact update cadence per file is Not stated on the checked pages.

Verdict

This is the U.S. Maritime Administration's data hub for agents tracking the U.S.-flag fleet, vessel calls and waterborne trade — fleet lists, a Fleet List Dashboard, a Weekly Coastal Report, vessel-call and containership reports, and U.S. Waterborne Foreign Trade by Customs Ports — distinct from the already-listed MARAD MSCI security advisories. Several of the published files are older vintages (2015–2017), and the U.S.-Flag Privately-Owned Fleet list is dated as of April 2025, so check each file's date before relying on it. No separate licence is stated on the checked pages; Signal Lab links to MARAD's data-reports pages rather than mirroring the files.
