The flag a ship flies and where the ship is registered has nothing to do with who actually owns a ship. A ship can be registered anywhere, so most large ships fly a flag of convenience from a country that is friendly to shipping. Panama and Liberia are the two most common. Even Mongolia and land locked Bolivia are used. As you can imagine, the United States is not a preferred country. This particular ship is owned by a Greek company.
