BIANCA: CO₂ emissions 2018–2022

BIANCA against its type

Built in 2003, it is 7 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 25,651 gross tonnage it is smaller than 87% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 43 oil tankers here under the Italy flag, 1.2% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 96 other vessels here, 19 of them oil tankers. Its MRV returns name it FRESIA for 2018–2021 and GREEN TRADER for 2022. The reported port of registry changed: VENICE (2018), then VALLETTA (2019–2021), then Majuro (2022).

Its 10,167 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 41% above the median of 7,189 t among the 1,939 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 400.6 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 415.9 kg. It logged 3,364 hours at sea against a median of 1,731 hours for its type that year. 13.7% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 9.1%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (15,349 t) and the lowest 2022 (10,167 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 98 in 2018 to 97 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2022 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2022

Position 1,720 of 1,771 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 97th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 29.0.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 350,457,428 tonne-miles over 25,380 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 28.5% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2021 to 2022, emissions fell 33.8% while distance sailed fell 33.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 0.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
