Monte Azul is a container ship owned by A.P. Moller Singapore Pte. Ltd. [3] and operated by Maersk Line AS. [2] The 272-metre (892 ft) long ship was built at Daewoo Mangalia Heavy Industries [1] in Mangalia, Romania in 2007/2008. Originally owned by Monte Azul GmbH & Co KG, a subsidiary of Hamburg Süd, [2] she has had two owners and been registered under three flags.
The vessel is one of ten ships of the Monte class built for Hamburg Süd by Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering and Daewoo Mangalia Heavy Industries between 2004 and 2009. [8]
Monte Azul had its keel laid down on 6 August 2007 [1] at Daewoo Mangalia Heavy Industries [1] in Mangalia, Romania. Its hull has an overall length of 272 metres (892 ft). [1] In terms of width, the ship has a beam of 40 metres (130 ft). [1] The height from the top of the keel to the main deck, called the moulded depth, is 24.2 metres (79 ft). [1]
The ship's container-carrying capacity of 5,568 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) (5,568 20-foot shipping containers) [6] places it in the range of a Post-Panamax container ship. [9] The ship's gross tonnage, a measure of the volume of all its enclosed spaces, is 69,132. [1] Its net tonnage, which measures the volume of the cargo spaces, is 34,823. [1] Its total carrying capacity in terms of weight, is 71,256.21 long tons deadweight (DWT). [1]

The 8-cylinder engine has a Maximum Continuous Rating of 45,765 kW with 102 revolutions per minute at MCR. The cylinder bore is 960mm. The ship also features 4 main power distribution system HSJ7 907-10F auxiliary generators by Hyundai Heavy Ind. Co., Ltd. EES, 2 at 4,342.4-kilowatt (5,823.3 hp), and 2 at 3,257.1-kilowatt (4,367.8 hp). [7] The vessel's steam piping system features an Aalborg CH 8-500 auxiliary boiler. [7]
