Pretty sure this is the Prelude: https://www.google.com/maps/place/%EA%B1%B0%EC%A0%9C%EC%8B%9...

Great spot!

The giant pivot-hole in the bow seems to confirm, as well as the size...

And the first word of the second paragraph being "Prelude" was a pretty good clue, too.
The 'this' the OP was referring to was the vessel in the Google Maps link they posted.
I'm measuring 496m long, so not that many possibilities.
Yeah, I measured it as well, but couldn't say for certain, so 'pretty sure' seemed like a safe modifier.
Side note: the inversion of the map was really interesting, I spent about 10min look at all the countries South to North trying to see if I could identify them.
And a little bit north you can see that big crane on a barge in the water. Very cool.
