In context

How Aarhus University compares

With 1 vessels attributed to it here, Aarhus University is the 492nd largest of the 965 operators in this directory that hold at least one ship on record, against a median of 2 across that group.

Denmark is the country of registration for 52 commercial operators in this directory, among which Aarhus University ranks 20th by ships on record. Between them those companies hold 122 vessels here. 1 of them carry a published container-capacity ranking. See every operator registered in Denmark.

Founded in 1928, Aarhus University is 98 years old. This directory holds 41 operators founded within five years either side of that date, whose median fleet on record is 1 ships. The median founding year across all commercial operators here is 1966, and the oldest on record dates to 1514.
