Ebba Maersk is a container ship owned by the Danish shipping company A. P. Moller-Maersk Group. The fifth of the Mærsk E-class, she and her seven sister ships are among the largest container ships ever built. She has a total TEU capacity of 11,000 TEU 14-ton containers by Maersk definition; however, with standard ratings she can hold 14,770 containers. This rating goes by physical space rather than weight. Her beam is 56 m (184 ft), her length 397 m (1,302 ft), and she has a deadweight tonnage of 156,907. In May 2010, she was reported with 15,011 TEU in Tangier, Morocco, the highest equivalent number of any vessel.

In the Daniel Suarez novel, Kill Decision, Ebba Maersk is taken over by thousands of automated combat drones hidden in shipping containers.
