Vessel Description

The MSC LORETTA is a Panamax-class container vessel operating under the flag of Panama within the global fleet of the Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC), one of the world's largest container shipping lines. Built in 2001 by Hyundai Heavy Industries in Ulsan, South Korea, the vessel has a TEU capacity of approximately 5,762 TEU, making her suitable for major transoceanic trade routes.

With a length of 294 meters and a deadweight of approximately 67,353 tonnes, MSC LORETTA operates within MSC's extensive liner network, transporting containerized cargo across international trade lanes. Her Panamax dimensions historically allowed transit through the original Panama Canal locks, providing operational flexibility across Atlantic and Pacific routing.

The vessel is powered by a MAN B&W two-stroke diesel engine driving a single screw propeller, consistent with standard deep-sea container vessel propulsion of her generation, delivering a service speed of approximately 23 knots.
