About HORIZON DUSK
HORIZON DUSK is a Norway-flagged Bulk Carrier registered under IMO 9090200 (MMSI 330708112) and currently associated with the Port of Rosario, Argentina. Vessels in this class belong to the broader dry bulk facility family — operationally that means cargo handling and voyage planning are dominated by Capesize, Panamax, Supramax and Handysize bulk carriers loading or discharging iron ore, coal, grain, bauxite, alumina, fertilisers, and other dry bulk commodities. Discharge typically uses ship-mounted or shore-based grab cranes, continuous unloaders, or pneumatic systems for grain, with covered conveyor lines feeding stockpile yards and onward rail or barge evacuation. She measures 271 metres in length overall by 35 metres in beam, with a gross tonnage of 531,824 GT and a deadweight of 597,555 tonnes.
The vessel is shown as moored, indicating she is secured at a berth or designated mooring with engines on standby and cargo operations either underway or completed. Her current declared estimated time of arrival is May 1, 2026 10:42 UTC, although ETAs are routinely revised in transit to reflect weather, routeing and pilot scheduling. She was built in 2003. The vessel is registered with the International Maritime Organization, whose database of registered ships and the conventions governing their operation is published at the IMO conventions library.
IMO numbers are issued by IHS Markit on behalf of the International Maritime Organization and remain attached to the hull for the lifetime of the vessel â they do not change with sale, re-flagging, or rename. MMSI numbers, in contrast, are issued by the flag state’s telecommunications administration and identify the vessel’s radio installation; an MMSI changes when a vessel changes flag. When researching an individual ship across historical records â particularly for incident investigation, port state inspection history, or insurance claims â the IMO number (9090200) is the stable identifier to anchor the search on, while the MMSI is the right key for AIS reception logs and VHF radio licensing records.
The vessel’s declared dimensions of 271 metres length overall by 35 metres beam, with 531,824 gross tonnage and 597,555 tonnes deadweight, place her in a specific size class within the global bulk carrier fleet. These particulars determine which port berths she can use, which canals she can transit (Panama Canal locks, Suez Canal draught, the Strait of Malacca’s Malaccamax constraint), and which terminals around the world have the cranes and yard plant to work her efficiently.
