How Taimyr 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 7,949 gross tons, Taimyr is the 38,780th 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 1.3 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.

Among the 1,085 multi-purposes held here, it ranks 171st by tonnage — larger than 82% of that group. Their median tonnage is 2,998 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 11,901 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Netherlands (170 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is SLKB Komarno – Slovak Shipyard Komárno, with 78 hulls on record.

Russia is the country of registry for 2,810 vessels in this directory, of which Taimyr is the 180th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (830 ships), and the median vessel measures 2,293 GT. Browse every ship flagged Russia.

Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 25 multi-purposes flying the Russia flag, of which 6 are larger by tonnage.

Taimyr was built in 1990, making it 36 years old. It is one of 1,306 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 2,025 GT; within it this ship is the 323rd largest. Across the whole of the 1990s the registry holds 12,006 vessels, median 4,956 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.

The registry attributes 76 vessels to Van der Giessen de Noord, with a median tonnage of 11,335 GT, delivered between 1944 and 2003. See the rest of that yard’s output.

At 130.0 m overall, Taimyr is 40.0 m longer than the 90.0 m median for multi-purposes on record, with a beam of 18.9 m and a draft of 8.5 m.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 8821797 this registry holds 54 other vessels, whose median build year is 1989 and which range from 1989 to 1993. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1990.

Its IMO number, 8821797, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 8×7 + 8×6 + 2×5 + 1×4 + 7×3 + 9×2 = 157 — and the last digit of that total, 7, must equal the seventh digit, 7. It does, so this number is well formed.
