Build Series

Sister Vessels

1 sister
Ferus Smit · OTHER · 2006–2007 · 2-hull series

Sister hulls share a yard, segment, build year (±1) and deadweight (±3%) — the cleanest comparables for valuation. Derived in-house from our fleet register; coverage is limited to hulls carrying a recorded builder, so a series may be incomplete.

Operational Status

Activity

Likely laid upLow confidenceFix 3 days ago

An older hull, stopped, whose last broadcast is itself no longer fresh — a cautious lay-up proxy.

Speed
0.0 kn
Nav status
Moored
Last broadcast

Hull age
20 yr

Read from the single most-recent AIS broadcast we hold for this hull — we keep no position history, so this is a point-in-time posture, not a dwell inference. “Likely laid up” is a cautious proxy (an old hull, stopped, with a non-fresh fix), not a confirmed lay-up. Derived in-house from our own AIS feed; weight it by the broadcast age above.

Port calls

2 recent · AIS-detected

Arrivals, time in port and the load/discharge inferred from the draught change — detected from AIS track history. An open call means the vessel is still in port (no departure observed yet).

  1. op. unknown
    In port since
  2. Loaded
    · 11 h in port· draught 3.85.5 m

Method: each call is a run of fixes inside a port’s geofence confirmed by a stop (or an AIS gap); load/discharge is the sign of the draught delta over the call. Indicative — arrivals before our AIS history began read from the first observation.

Where it waits

1 port · 11 h total

Time-in-port summed by port from the AIS-detected port-call history — the ports this vessel has spent the most time at, longest first.

  1. Eydehavn· Norway
    11 h
    1 call · 11 h avg 1 load

Based on 1 completed call observed since — open calls (no departure yet) are excluded. The distribution sharpens as AIS history accrues.

A coverage-weighted blend of the 2 components we could read for this hull — the weights renormalise over only the components present, so a thin read is never inflated and a hull is never credited a “safe 0” for a signal it has no row for. This headline is flagged low-confidence (a thin or structural-only read) and should not be treated as a verdict. Higher means riskier. Derived in-house from government-open port-State-control, flag, sanctions and our own vessel data; weight it by the coverage above.

Design draught looks implausible for this class and size — the figures above are anchored to it, so treat them with extra caution.

Estimate only — modelled from deadweight (deadweight only) using a first-principles hydrostatic model, not measured hydrostatic tables. The design draught it is anchored to is unreliable across the fleet.
