AJAX against its type
Built in 2005, it is 5 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 30,053 gross tonnage it is smaller than 71% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 180 oil tankers here under the Bahamas flag, 5.1% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 983 other vessels here, 270 of them oil tankers. The returns for 2018–2022 all give Nassau as port of registry.
Its 11,669 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 1.6 times the median of 7,189 t among the 1,939 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 459.2 kg CO₂, 10% above the type median of 415.9 kg. It logged 2,158 hours at sea against a median of 1,731 hours for its type that year. 11.4% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 9.1%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (11,669 t) and the lowest 2018 (3,192 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 66 in 2018 to 91 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2022 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 1,609 of 1,771 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 91st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 18.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 620,356,194 tonne-miles over 25,414 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 265.6% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2022, emissions rose 109.4% while distance sailed rose 135.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 11.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
