In context
How «POS Ambition» 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 75,277 gross tons, «POS Ambition» is the 6,220th 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 13 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 6,890 bulk carriers held here, it ranks 837th by tonnage — larger than 87% of that group. Their median tonnage is 32,837 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 85,849 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is Panama (1,548 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Oshima Shipbuilding, with 337 hulls on record.
«POS Ambition» was built in 1992, making it 34 years old. It is one of 1,130 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 3,228 GT; within it this ship is the 68th 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 826 vessels to Samsung Heavy Industries, with a median tonnage of 75,201 GT, delivered between 1980 and 2025. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 269.0 m overall, «POS Ambition» is 79.0 m longer than the 190.0 m median for bulk carriers on record.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9037733 this registry holds 36 other vessels, whose median build year is 1992 and which range from 1991 to 2002. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1992.
Its IMO number, 9037733, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 0×6 + 3×5 + 7×4 + 7×3 + 3×2 = 133 — and the last digit of that total, 3, must equal the seventh digit, 3. It does, so this number is well formed.
