AUROURA: CO₂ emissions 2018–2020

AUROURA against its type

Built in 2004, it is 6 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 28,799 gross tonnage it is smaller than 80% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 793 oil tankers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 22.4% of the 3,548 on the register. The returns for 2018–2020 all give Majuro as port of registry.

Its 7,137 t of CO₂ for 2020 is 18% below the median of 8,732 t among the 1,884 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2020. Per nautical mile it emitted 423.6 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 424.6 kg. It logged 1,492 hours at sea against a median of 1,939 hours for its type that year. 3.5% of its 2020 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.6%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (7,137 t) and the lowest 2018 (5,483 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 85 in 2018 to 95 in 2020 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2020 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.
