FRONT KATHRINE 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 156,651 gross tonnage it is larger than 88% 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. The same builder is recorded for 194 other vessels here, 56 of them oil tankers. Its MRV returns name it FRONT KATHRINE for 2019–2020 and PLATA GLORY for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Majuro (2019–2020), then MHL - Majuro (2024–2025).
Its 14,071 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 1.7 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 816.8 kg CO₂, 2.0 times the type median of 408.2 kg. It logged 1,849 hours at sea against a median of 2,020 hours for its type that year. 6.8% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.2%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (14,071 t) and the lowest 2019 (3,631 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 6 in 2019 to 10 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 sister ships listed below with a 2024 return, 7 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
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 type2024
Position 149 of 1,566 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 10th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 4.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 3,264,754,060 tonne-miles over 17,227 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 287.6% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2024, emissions rose 15.1% while distance sailed rose 13.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
