Tor Viking

At 3,382 gross tons, Tor Viking is the 50,283rd 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 1.8 times smaller than the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.

Among the 612 research / surveys held here, it ranks 176th by tonnage — larger than 64% of that group. Their median tonnage is 2,180 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 9,452 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is United States (90 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Wärtsilä, with 36 hulls on record.

Tor Viking was built in 2000, making it 26 years old. It is one of 1,296 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 8,737 GT; within it this ship is the 798th 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 76 vessels to Havyard Ship Technology, with a median tonnage of 2,807 GT, delivered between 1957 and 2021. See the rest of that yard’s output.

At 84.0 m overall, Tor Viking is 13.0 m longer than the 71.0 m median for research / surveys on record.

IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9199622 this registry holds 49 other vessels, whose median build year is 1999 and which range from 1998 to 2019. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2000.

Its IMO number, 9199622, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 1×6 + 9×5 + 9×4 + 6×3 + 2×2 = 172 — and the last digit of that total, 2, must equal the seventh digit, 2. It does, so this number is well formed.
