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 29,429 gross tons, MV C Ocean Trader is the 20,213th 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.

Their median tonnage is 5,358 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 54,309 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Panama (5,698 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is HD Hyundai Mipo, with 615 hulls on record.

MV C Ocean Trader was built in 2011, making it 15 years old. It is one of 2,848 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 23,456 GT; within it this ship is the 1,263rd 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.
The registry attributes 190 vessels to Odense Steel Shipyard, with a median tonnage of 52,186 GT, delivered between 1924 and 2012. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 193.0 m overall, MV C Ocean Trader is 78.0 m longer than the 115.0 m median for vessels this registry holds no type classification for on record, with a beam of 85.3 m and a draft of 18.4 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9457218 this registry holds 60 other vessels, whose median build year is 2010 and which range from 2008 to 2014. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2011.
Its IMO number, 9457218, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 4×6 + 5×5 + 7×4 + 2×3 + 1×2 = 148 — and the last digit of that total, 8, must equal the seventh digit, 8. It does, so this number is well formed.
