At 86,682 gross tons, Seroja Lima is the 5,052nd 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 14 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.

Among the 3,881 container ships held here, it ranks 800th by tonnage — larger than 78% 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.

Seroja Lima 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 349th 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 117 vessels to Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Nagasaki Shipyard & Machinery, with a median tonnage of 61,321 GT, delivered between 1955 and 2021. See the rest of that yard’s output.

At 316.0 m overall, Seroja Lima is 94.4 m longer than the 221.6 m median for container ships on record.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9567661 this registry holds 60 other vessels, whose median build year is 2011 and which range from 2009 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, 9567661, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 5×6 + 6×5 + 7×4 + 6×3 + 6×2 = 181 — and the last digit of that total, 1, must equal the seventh digit, 1. It does, so this number is well formed.
