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 66,500 gross tons, MSC Vidhi is the 6,834th 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 11 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 3,881 container ships held here, it ranks 1,008th by tonnage — larger than 73% of that group. Their median tonnage is 33,698 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 140,096 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Liberia (498 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, with 348 hulls on record.
Liberia is the country of registry for 4,741 vessels in this directory, of which MSC Vidhi is the 952nd largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (2,739 ships), and the median vessel measures 32,983 GT. Browse every ship flagged Liberia.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 498 container ships flying the Liberia flag, of which 148 are larger by tonnage.
MSC Vidhi was built in 2001, making it 25 years old. It is one of 1,268 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 14,062 GT; within it this ship is the 112th 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 826 vessels to Samsung Heavy Industries, with a median tonnage of 75,201 GT, delivered between 1980 and 2025. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 277.3 m overall, MSC Vidhi is 55.7 m longer than the 221.6 m median for container ships on record and a draft of 14.0 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9238739 this registry holds 50 other vessels, whose median build year is 2002 and which range from 2001 to 2008. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2001.
Its IMO number, 9238739, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 2×6 + 3×5 + 8×4 + 7×3 + 3×2 = 149 — and the last digit of that total, 9, must equal the seventh digit, 9. It does, so this number is well formed.
