FRONT LEOPARD against its type
Built in 2016, it is 6 years newer than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 62,700 gross tonnage it is larger than 60% 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 returns for 2018–2025 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 12,458 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 365.0 kg CO₂, 11% below the type median of 408.2 kg. It logged 3,173 hours at sea against a median of 2,020 hours for its type that year. 2.4% 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 (22,337 t) and the lowest 2022 (8,865 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 61 in 2018 to 38 in 2024 (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 type2024
Position 596 of 1,566 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 38th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 6.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,862,185,351 tonne-miles over 34,133 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 44.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 15.0% while distance sailed rose 24.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 7.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
