How Glen Lyon 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 134,162 gross tons, Glen Lyon is the 1,911th 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 22 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 911 rig / offshore units held here, it ranks 15th by tonnage — larger than 98% of that group. Their median tonnage is 9,254 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 51,732 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Liberia (179 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Hanwha Ocean, with 27 hulls on record.
Isle of Man is the country of registry for 211 vessels in this directory, of which Glen Lyon is the 6th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (152 ships), and the median vessel measures 18,311 GT. Browse every ship flagged Isle of Man.
Glen Lyon was built in 2015, making it 11 years old. It is one of 1,804 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 25,303 GT; within it this ship is the 74th largest. Across the whole of the 2010s the registry holds 20,111 vessels, median 23,456 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 270.0 m overall, Glen Lyon is 196.0 m longer than the 74.0 m median for rig / offshore units on record and a draft of 21.7 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9621493 this registry holds 65 other vessels, whose median build year is 2013 and which range from 2011 to 2016. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2015.
