Overview
Federal Rideau is a bulk carrier owned and operated by Fednav. She, and her sister ship, Federal Asahii, were built in Ōshima, Japan, in 2000. The vessel entered service the same year. The vessel has had two incidents in her career, both in 2014.

Compliance
On 26 October 2019, the bulk carrier "FEDERAL RIDEAU" reported being disabled 20 nautical miles South of La Romaine, QC. The crew carried out repairs and the vessel resumed its voyage.
On 22 July 2018, the bulk carrier "FEDERAL RIDEAU" hit the ship arrestor of Lock no. 5 in the Welland Canal, ON due to an engine failure.
On 03 January 2014, the MV "FEDERAL RIDEAU" allided with the pier whilst departing section #28 in Quebec, QC. The vessel sustained damage to its starboard quarter and went back to the berth for inspection and repairs. No injuries or pollution reported.

Build 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.
Composite Risk
Strong, corroborated adverse evidence — a detention, sanctions exposure or an AIS-gap / behavioural signal.
A coverage-weighted blend of the 3 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. 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.
Estimated
Bulker · summer draught 5.8 m · 43.8 t per cm immersion
Estimate only — modelled from deadweight (deadweight regression) using a first-principles hydrostatic model, not measured hydrostatic tables. The design draught it is anchored to is unreliable across the fleet.
density DWT/GT=1.77 is consistent with declared bulker
Declared type is consistent with the class implied by the vessel’s size signals. Inferred via our shared size-based classifier.
