  1. The MS Emma Maersk is a container ship with a gross tonnage of 170,974  bt, and a dead weight tonnage of 156,907 DWT.

    The ship is 397 m long, 56m beam and draft of 30m.

    Propulsion is provided by a 14 cyl Wartsila diesel of 110,000 bhp. Shaft torque is augmented by 2 electric motors, driven by 5 diesels generators with a 20,7000 KWH output, plus a gas/steam turbine generator of 8500 KWH.

  2. ship longer than US aircraft carriers, which have complements of 5,000 men and officers. Think it's big enough? Notice that 207' beam means it was NOT designed for the Panama or Suez canal . It is strictly transpacific. Check out the "cruise speed". 31 mph means the goods arrive four days before the typical container ship traveling at 18 to 20 mph on a China-to-California run. So this behemoth is hugely competitive when carrying perishable goods.This ship was built in three, perhaps as many as five sections. The sections floated together and then welded. It is named Emma Maersk. The command bridge is higher than a ten story building and has eleven rigs that can operate simultaneously.

    Additional info:

    Country of origin - Denmark

    Length - 1,302 ft

    Width - 207 ft

    Net cargo - 123,200 tons

    Engine - 14 in-line cylinders diesel engine (110,000 BHP)

    Cruise Speed - 31 mi/h

    Cargo capacity - 15,000 TEU (1 TEU = 20 ft3 container)

    Crew - 13 people

    First Trip - Sept. 08, 2006

    Construction cost - US $145,000,000+

    The silicone paint applied to the ship's bottom reduces water resistance and saves 317,000 gallons
