BIT FORCE 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 6,280 gross tonnage it is smaller than 98% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 5 oil tankers here under the Netherlands flag, 0.1% of the 3,548 on the register. Its MRV returns name it PANDION for 2018 and BIT FORCE for 2019–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Limassol (2018), then Dordrecht (2019–2025).
Its 6,849 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 14% below the median of 7,922 t among the 1,704 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 182.9 kg CO₂, 55% below the type median of 403.2 kg. It logged 3,550 hours at sea against a median of 2,030 hours for its type that year. 16.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.8%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (9,233 t) and the lowest 2023 (6,381 t). Of the 3 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 11.7% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 6.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 13.0%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
