In context
Every figure in this section is a count, a rank or a percentile over vessels actually held in this registry — not over the world fleet, which is larger. Nothing here is estimated.
At 188,728 gross tons, Belokamenka is the 258th largest of the 84,014 vessels in this registry that report a tonnage. The median across that set is 5,994 GT, so this hull is about 31 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 58,086 vessels this registry holds no type classification for held here, it ranks 84th by tonnage — larger than 100% of that group. Their median tonnage is 5,358 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 54,309 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Panama (5,698 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is HD Hyundai Mipo, with 615 hulls on record.
Bermuda is the country of registry for 177 vessels in this directory, of which Belokamenka is the 1st largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (80 ships), and the median vessel measures 77,277 GT. Browse every ship flagged Bermuda.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 80 vessels this registry holds no type classification for flying the Bermuda flag, of which none is larger than Belokamenka.
Belokamenka was built in 1980, making it 46 years old. It is one of 1,736 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 2,301 GT; within it this ship is the 1st largest. Across the whole of the 1980s the registry holds 13,213 vessels, median 3,004 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 5 vessels to Mitsui Group, with a median tonnage of 73,887 GT, delivered between 1972 and 1991. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 341.0 m overall, Belokamenka is 226.0 m longer than the 115.0 m median for vessels this registry holds no type classification for on record, with a beam of 65.0 m and a draft of 23.2 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 7708314 this registry holds 29 other vessels, whose median build year is 1978 and which range from 1977 to 1981. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1980.
Its IMO number, 7708314, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 7×7 + 7×6 + 0×5 + 8×4 + 3×3 + 1×2 = 134 — and the last digit of that total, 4, must equal the seventh digit, 4. It does, so this number is well formed.
