EMERALD SPIRIT against its type

Built in 2009, it is 1 year older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 60,185 gross tonnage it is larger than 52% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 180 oil tankers here under the Bahamas flag, 5.1% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 204 other vessels here, 19 of them oil tankers. The returns for 2022–2025 all give Nassau as port of registry.

Its 2,142 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 74% below the median of 8,196 t among the 1,808 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 507.8 kg CO₂, 24% above the type median of 408.2 kg. It logged 448 hours at sea against a median of 2,020 hours for its type that year. 10.9% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.2%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (3,949 t) and the lowest 2023 (2,018 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 47 in 2022 to 13 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2024 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 45.7% lower than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 6.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 15.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
