How Ore Brucutu 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 124,039 gross tons, Ore Brucutu is the 2,132nd 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 21 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 6,890 bulk carriers held here, it ranks 109th by tonnage — larger than 98% of that group. Their median tonnage is 32,837 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 85,849 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Panama (1,548 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Oshima Shipbuilding, with 337 hulls on record.
Liberia is the country of registry for 4,741 vessels in this directory, of which Ore Brucutu is the 269th 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 669 bulk carriers flying the Liberia flag, of which 23 are larger by tonnage.
Ore Brucutu was built in 1986, making it 40 years old. It is one of 866 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 4,769 GT; within it this ship is the 7th largest. Across the whole of the 1980s the registry holds 13,213 vessels, median 3,004 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 181 vessels to NKK, with a median tonnage of 56,076 GT, delivered between 1958 and 2003. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 325.0 m overall, Ore Brucutu is 135.0 m longer than the 190.0 m median for bulk carriers on record.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 8516691 this registry holds 23 other vessels, whose median build year is 1987 and which range from 1984 to 1988. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series.
