In context

How Far Sovereign compares

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 4,418 gross tons, Far Sovereign is the 46,209th 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 1.4 times smaller than 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 26,417th by tonnage — larger than 47% 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.

Norway is the country of registry for 3,032 vessels in this directory, of which Far Sovereign is the 1,031st largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (2,126 ships), and the median vessel measures 3,102 GT. Browse every ship flagged Norway.

Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 2,126 vessels this registry holds no type classification for flying the Norway flag, of which 723 are larger by tonnage.

Far Sovereign was built in 1999, making it 27 years old. It is one of 1,252 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 8,594 GT; within it this ship is the 736th largest. 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 74 vessels to Langsten Slip & Båtbyggeri, with a median tonnage of 4,797 GT, delivered between 1967 and 2023. See the rest of that yard’s output.

At 85.0 m overall, Far Sovereign is 30.0 m shorter than the 115.0 m median for vessels this registry holds no type classification for on record.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9186675 this registry holds 58 other vessels, whose median build year is 1999 and which range from 1998 to 2000. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1999.

Its IMO number, 9186675, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 1×6 + 8×5 + 6×4 + 6×3 + 7×2 = 165 — and the last digit of that total, 5, must equal the seventh digit, 5. It does, so this number is well formed.
