List of largest ships by gross tonnage

This is a list of some of the world's largest ships by gross tonnage. Gross tonnage is a calculated value based on the ship's internal volume. Container ships the size of the Maersk Triple E class or larger would probably exceed these ships' gross tonnage if the volume of above-deck containers was included. Many of the world's longest ships are not particularly voluminous.

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries.
