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 29,691 gross tons, MS Stena Jutlandica is the 19,918th 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 5.0 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 1,234 ferrys held here, it ranks 65th by tonnage — larger than 93% of that group. Their median tonnage is 3,908 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 25,454 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Japan (241 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, with 34 hulls on record.
Sweden is the country of registry for 370 vessels in this directory, of which MS Stena Jutlandica is the 35th largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (195 ships), and the median vessel measures 972 GT. Browse every ship flagged Sweden.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 48 ferrys flying the Sweden flag, of which 6 are larger by tonnage.
MS Stena Jutlandica was built in 1996, making it 30 years old. It is one of 1,254 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 7,254 GT; within it this ship is the 241st 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 184.3 m overall, MS Stena Jutlandica is 80.3 m longer than the 104.0 m median for ferrys on record, with a beam of 29.3 m and a draft of 6.0 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9125944 this registry holds 63 other vessels, whose median build year is 1996 and which range from 1994 to 2001. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1996.
Its IMO number, 9125944, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 1×6 + 2×5 + 5×4 + 9×3 + 4×2 = 134 — and the last digit of that total, 4, must equal the seventh digit, 4. It does, so this number is well formed.
