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 128,600 gross tons, CMA CGM Thalassa is the 2,052nd 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 21 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 3,881 container ships held here, it ranks 400th by tonnage — larger than 89% 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.
Cyprus is the country of registry for 1,418 vessels in this directory, of which CMA CGM Thalassa is the 11th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (915 ships), and the median vessel measures 15,666 GT. Browse every ship flagged Cyprus.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 95 container ships flying the Cyprus flag, of which none is larger than CMA CGM Thalassa.
CMA CGM Thalassa was built in 2008, making it 18 years old. It is one of 2,764 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 8,971 GT; within it this ship is the 66th 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 3 vessels to Daewoo, with a median tonnage of 128,600 GT, delivered between 2008 and 2011. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 347.0 m overall, CMA CGM Thalassa is 125.4 m longer than the 221.6 m median for container ships on record, with a beam of 43.2 m and a draft of 15.5 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9356294 this registry holds 58 other vessels, whose median build year is 2008 and which range from 2005 to 2011. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2008.
Its IMO number, 9356294, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 3×6 + 5×5 + 6×4 + 2×3 + 9×2 = 154 — and the last digit of that total, 4, must equal the seventh digit, 4. It does, so this number is well formed.
