How Island Frontier 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 6,834 gross tons, Island Frontier is the 40,471st largest of the 84,014 vessels in this registry that report a tonnage. The median across that set is 5,994 GT. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 1,423 offshore supplys held here, it ranks 84th by tonnage — larger than 94% of that group. Their median tonnage is 2,061 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 4,961 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is United States (283 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is North American Shipbuilding, with 55 hulls on record.
Norway is the country of registry for 3,032 vessels in this directory, of which Island Frontier is the 838th 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 57 offshore supplys flying the Norway flag, of which 10 are larger by tonnage.
Island Frontier was built in 2003, making it 23 years old. It is one of 1,383 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 11,954 GT; within it this ship is the 763rd largest. Across the whole of the 2000s the registry holds 18,605 vessels, median 9,957 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 67 vessels to Søviknes Verft, with a median tonnage of 3,160 GT, delivered between 1956 and 2021. See the rest of that yard’s output.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9249520 this registry holds 74 other vessels, whose median build year is 2002 and which range from 2001 to 2005. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series.
