Sovereign Maersk is container ship, which is part of the fleet of Maersk Line. The container vessel is operated by AP Moller Maersk Denmark and built in 1997 in the shipyard of Odense Steel Shipyard. This cargo ship is one of the most discussed ships as a result of a crankcase explosion. On January 20, 2000, whilst sailing from Hong Kong to Long Beach, an oil mist detector alarm sounded. The on duty engineer entered the engine room to investigate. Shortly afterward, a crank case explosion caused by a main engine bearing overheating occurred, causing serious injury to the engineer (who required months of recuperation). The vessel was towed into Kobe, Japan for repairs. The problem with the main engine of Sovereign Maersk was later fixed and in spite of this incident the ship is among the most environmental{{Clarify|date=March 2015}} and most economical ships of Maersk Line built before year 2000.
