In context
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 452 gross tons, Mowi Star is the 75,020th 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 13 times smaller than the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 2,411 fishing vessels held here, it ranks 1,923rd by tonnage — larger than 16% of that group. Their median tonnage is 738 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 2,773 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Russia (797 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Kuznia na Rybalskomu, with 175 hulls on record.
Norway is the country of registry for 3,032 vessels in this directory, of which Mowi Star is the 2,108th 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 180 fishing vessels flying the Norway flag, of which 130 are larger by tonnage.
Mowi Star was built in 1996, making it 30 years old. It is one of 1,254 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 7,254 GT; within it this ship is the 1,138th largest. Across the whole of the 1990s the registry holds 12,006 vessels, median 4,956 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 50 vessels to Aas Mek. Verksted AS, with a median tonnage of 1,266 GT, delivered between 1991 and 2022. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 38.7 m overall, Mowi Star is 15.3 m shorter than the 54.0 m median for fishing vessels on record.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9126027 this registry holds 64 other vessels, whose median build year is 1996 and which range from 1994 to 2001. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1996.
Its IMO number, 9126027, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 1×6 + 2×5 + 6×4 + 0×3 + 2×2 = 107 — and the last digit of that total, 7, must equal the seventh digit, 7. It does, so this number is well formed.
