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 107,146 gross tons, Grace Energy is the 2,940th 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 18 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 270 lng carriers held here, it ranks 115th by tonnage — larger than 54% of that group. Their median tonnage is 105,826 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 128,416 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Marshall Islands (37 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Samsung Heavy Industries, with 39 hulls on record.
Panama is the country of registry for 9,598 vessels in this directory, of which Grace Energy is the 408th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (5,698 ships), and the median vessel measures 18,203 GT. Browse every ship flagged Panama.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 21 lng carriers flying the Panama flag, of which 10 are larger by tonnage.
Grace Energy was built in 1989, making it 37 years old.

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, 8702941, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 8×7 + 7×6 + 0×5 + 2×4 + 9×3 + 4×2 = 141 — and the last digit of that total, 1, must equal the seventh digit, 1. It does, so this number is well formed.
