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 142,488 gross tons, Southernpec 5 is the 1,624th 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 24 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 2,402 tankers held here, it ranks 42nd by tonnage — larger than 98% 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.
Marshall Islands is the country of registry for 3,838 vessels in this directory, of which Southernpec 5 is the 189th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (2,407 ships), and the median vessel measures 32,987 GT. Browse every ship flagged Marshall Islands.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 140 tankers flying the Marshall Islands flag, of which 5 are larger by tonnage.

Events recorded against this vessel in the source, with the dates the source gives. An event with no date is listed last rather than assigned one.
Same yard, same years
No ship class is recorded for this vessel, so these are not asserted to be sister ships — they are contemporaries from the same builder, shown because that is what the data supports.

Measurements
Its IMO number, 8716344, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 8×7 + 7×6 + 1×5 + 6×4 + 3×3 + 4×2 = 144 — and the last digit of that total, 4, must equal the seventh digit, 4. It does, so this number is well formed.
