BUDDHA 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 62,002 gross tonnage it is larger than 57% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 8 oil tankers here under the Antigua and Barbuda flag, 0.2% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 146 other vessels here, 55 of them oil tankers. Its MRV returns name it VENICE A for 2018–2023 and BUDDHA for 2024. The reported port of registry changed: Valletta (2018–2021), then Monrovia (2022–2023), then St.John's (2024).
Its 12,520 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 1.5 times the median of 8,196 t among the 1,808 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 497.2 kg CO₂, 22% above the type median of 408.2 kg. It logged 2,297 hours at sea against a median of 2,020 hours for its type that year. 7.8% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.2%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (13,647 t) and the lowest 2021 (4,171 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 67 in 2018 to 75 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 1,176 of 1,566 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 75th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 10.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,208,494,208 tonne-miles over 25,181 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 8.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 40.4% while distance sailed rose 28.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 9.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
