This 199x32m ( 653x105ft) general cargo ship was built in 2012 by Oshima Shipbuilding of Saikai, Japan and owned by Temm Maritime according to BalticShipping.com. However, the lettering on the ship suggests the ship is instead owned by Gearbulk and is part of the joint venture between them and Grieg Star, G2 Ocean.

In my video below the ship can be seen turning from the Chesapeake Bay onto the Patapsco River on her approach to Baltimore, Maryland. The pilot boat Maryland can be seen making an approach to the ship before disappearing on the far side. As the ship nears it can be seen she is loaded but not quite to the waterline.

The container ship Maersk Gateshead can be seen worked by cranes as the ship passes. In the final scenes the ship ARC Integrity can be seen heading for Dundalk Marine Terminal still wearing her old Wallenius Wilhelmsen paint.
