Built in 1976 as AXEL MAERK for AP Moller, she was renamed ADRIAN MAERK after lenghtening in 1984. Ten years later, she was further altered by adding a roro facility aft as well as deck cranes thus considerably altering her profile. As SP5 ERIC J. GIBSON, she was put under the US flag under Maersk ownership. The ship was renamed MAERSK ALASKA in 1999.
