In context

How Mission Lifeline compares

With 1 vessels attributed to it here, Mission Lifeline 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. That is a count of individually identified hulls, not the company’s published fleet size — the two are different measurements and both are shown above where available.

Germany is the country of registration for 147 commercial operators in this directory, among which Mission Lifeline ranks 61st by ships on record. Between them those companies hold 640 vessels here. 1 of them carry a published container-capacity ranking. See every operator registered in Germany.
