Seatransport

At 57,529 gross tons, Seatransport is the 8,509th 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 9.6 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.

Among the 2,402 tankers held here, it ranks 171st by tonnage — larger than 93% 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.

Seatransport was built in 2002, making it 24 years old. It is one of 1,298 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 12,563 GT; within it this ship is the 162nd 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 597 vessels to Tsuneishi Shipbuilding, with a median tonnage of 38,530 GT, delivered between 1968 and 2025. See the rest of that yard’s output.

At 240.5 m overall, Seatransport is 101.5 m longer than the 139.0 m median for tankers on record, with a beam of 42.0 m and a draft of 14.9 m.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9247821 this registry holds 68 other vessels, whose median build year is 2002 and which range from 2001 to 2004. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2002.

Its IMO number, 9247821, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 2×6 + 4×5 + 7×4 + 8×3 + 2×2 = 151 — and the last digit of that total, 1, must equal the seventh digit, 1. It does, so this number is well formed.
