I checked up,and I finded an explanation.Grosstonnage says that BARRET was named after and until 1990 EMPIRE STATE V
then until 1990 April 01 EMPIRE STATE and finally STATE.
Her IMO as per Grosstonnage 7941904,but they present a wrong photo that correspond to EMPIRE STATE imo 5264510 ex AMERICAN TIDE ex MORMACTIDE ex OREGON
