BLUE MOON against its type
Built in 2011, it is 1 year newer than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 56,326 gross tonnage it is smaller than 56% 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. Its MRV returns name it MAERSK JEDDAH for 2018 and BLUE MOON for 2019–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Singapore (2018–2019), then Majuro (2021–2025).
Its 15,553 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 2.1 times the median of 7,491 t among the 1,850 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 464.7 kg CO₂, 14% above the type median of 408.5 kg. It logged 2,935 hours at sea against a median of 1,807 hours for its type that year. 11.3% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.4%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (15,680 t) and the lowest 2021 (2,385 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 57 in 2018 to 70 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 1,130 of 1,615 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 70th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 10.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,507,045,543 tonne-miles over 33,466 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 15.7% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions rose 237.6% while distance sailed rose 189.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 16.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
