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 20,837 gross tons, Federal Maas is the 26,146th 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 3.5 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 6,890 bulk carriers held here, it ranks 4,953rd by tonnage — larger than 24% of that group. Their median tonnage is 32,837 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 85,849 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Panama (1,548 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Oshima Shipbuilding, with 337 hulls on record.
Russia is the country of registry for 2,810 vessels in this directory, of which Federal Maas is the 43rd largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (830 ships), and the median vessel measures 2,293 GT. Browse every ship flagged Russia.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 11 bulk carriers flying the Russia flag, of which 3 are larger by tonnage.
Federal Maas 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; within it this ship is the 401st 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 186 vessels to Jiangnan Shipyard, with a median tonnage of 36,438 GT, delivered between 1973 and 2025. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 200.0 m overall, Federal Maas is 10.0 m longer than the 190.0 m median for bulk carriers on record.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9118135 this registry holds 70 other vessels, whose median build year is 1996 and which range from 1994 to 1998. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1997.
Its IMO number, 9118135, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 1×6 + 1×5 + 8×4 + 1×3 + 3×2 = 115 — and the last digit of that total, 5, must equal the seventh digit, 5. It does, so this number is well formed.
