Open data · every figure carries its source
No gross tonnage is recorded for this vessel, so it cannot be ranked by size. Rank is only shown where the underlying measurement exists.
Vessel particulars
Every value is as recorded in the source. Blanks are values the source does not hold — none is estimated from a sister ship or a class average.

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.
Bunga Melati Dua was built in 1997, making it 29 years old. It is one of 1,319 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 8,388 GT. Across the whole of the 1990s the registry holds 12,006 vessels, median 4,956 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 1,092 vessels to HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, with a median tonnage of 65,131 GT, delivered between 1970 and 2025. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 177.2 m overall, Bunga Melati Dua is 58.1 m longer than the 119.1 m median for chemical / products tankers on record, with a beam of 30.0 m and a draft of 10.4 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9123661 this registry holds 56 other vessels, whose median build year is 1996 and which range from 1995 to 1997. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1997.
Its IMO number, 9123661, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 1×6 + 2×5 + 3×4 + 6×3 + 6×2 = 121 — and the last digit of that total, 1, must equal the seventh digit, 1. It does, so this number is well formed.

Record
Events recorded against this vessel in the source, with the dates the source gives. An event with no date is listed last rather than assigned one.
Same yard, same years
No ship class is recorded for this vessel, so these are not asserted to be sister ships — they are contemporaries from the same builder, shown because that is what the data supports.
