Mattheos I

At 27,207 gross tons, Mattheos I is the 21,591st 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 4.5 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.

Among the 2,402 tankers held here, it ranks 547th by tonnage — larger than 76% of that group. Their median tonnage is 8,256 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 42,340 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Panama (219 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is HD Hyundai Mipo, with 175 hulls on record.

Mattheos I was built in 2004, making it 22 years old. It is one of 1,485 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 17,188 GT; within it this ship is the 556th 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 144 vessels to Uljanik, with a median tonnage of 25,600 GT, delivered between 1952 and 2019. See the rest of that yard’s output.

At 182.8 m overall, Mattheos I is 43.8 m longer than the 139.0 m median for tankers on record, with a beam of 32.2 m and a draft of 12.0 m.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9281554 this registry holds 62 other vessels, whose median build year is 2004 and which range from 2002 to 2006. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2004.

Its IMO number, 9281554, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 2×6 + 8×5 + 1×4 + 5×3 + 5×2 = 144 — and the last digit of that total, 4, must equal the seventh digit, 4. It does, so this number is well formed.
