A quick estimate: the median $/dwt of 54 similar-size, similar-age ships sold in the last 24 months, not re-timed to today's market. The full valuation blends several models over recent sales adjusted for size, age and market moves, so its consensus value can differ from this figure. Indicative, not a certified valuation.

Safety Record

Marine casualties1

Machinery FailureMinor
Dec 8, 2018Sorel , QC, QUEBEC (QC)
On 08 December 2018, the crude oil tanker "MEGANISI", while departing Tracy, QC, sustained a bridge control failure causing the main engine to shut down. The crew used local controls to restart the engine and proceeded to the Lanoraie anchorage, where the crew carried out repairs. The vessel then resumed its voyage.

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.

A coverage-weighted blend of the 4 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.

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.
