At 29,450 gross tons, Hellas Margarita is the 20,185th 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 4.9 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.

Hellas Margarita was built in 2017, making it 9 years old. It is one of 1,468 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 26,213 GT; within it this ship is the 672nd 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.

At 183.0 m overall, Hellas Margarita is 44.0 m longer than the 139.0 m median for tankers on record, with a beam of 32.2 m and a draft of 13.3 m.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9794721 this registry holds 37 other vessels, whose median build year is 2017 and which range from 2016 to 2019. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2017.

Its IMO number, 9794721, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 7×6 + 9×5 + 4×4 + 7×3 + 2×2 = 191 — and the last digit of that total, 1, must equal the seventh digit, 1. It does, so this number is well formed.
