The registry attributes 15 vessels to Cantieri Riuniti dell'Adriatico, with a median tonnage of 7,190 GT, delivered between 1925 and 1966. See the rest of that yard’s output.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 5137391 this registry holds 8 other vessels, whose median build year is 1954 and which range from 1949 to 1963. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1963.

Its IMO number, 5137391, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 5×7 + 1×6 + 3×5 + 7×4 + 3×3 + 9×2 = 111 — and the last digit of that total, 1, must equal the seventh digit, 1. It does, so this number is well formed.
