FRIO STAR against its type

Built in 1998, it is 4 years newer than the median refrigerated cargo carrier on this register, which was built in 1994 (183 vessels with a known build year). At 9,307 gross tonnage it is smaller than 56% of the other 178 refrigerated cargo carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 38 refrigerated cargo carriers here under the Panama flag, 18.8% of the 202 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 76 other vessels here, 13 of them refrigerated cargo carriers. The returns for 2024–2025 all give Panama as port of registry.

Its 1,741 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 66% below the median of 5,190 t among the 111 refrigerated cargo carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 260.9 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.9 kg. It logged 458 hours at sea against a median of 1,731 hours for its type that year. 5.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for refrigerated cargo carriers was 3.8%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (4,287 t) and the lowest 2025 (1,741 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 30 in 2020 to 52 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 50 of 95 qualifying refrigerated cargo carriers by EEOI, at the 52nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 55.3; this vessel reported 55.9.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 31,131,080 tonne-miles over 6,672 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 41.6% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 59.4% while distance sailed fell 57.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
