The flag is white with a red “H” in the lower fly and a black–white–red horizontal tricolour canton, identified in the source as the German Empire’s colours.

Hansa Tank-Reederei GmbH appears as an operated company from Jordan’s 1939 account to Lloyds 1988–89, although Mitchell names Gunther & Joch as manager.

The archive instead gives a 1924 origin and proposes an Essberger/Atlantic-Tank connection. The contemporary 1919 history materially conflicts with that chronology, suggesting predecessor or similarly named Atlantic companies may have been conflated.
