FRONT SANTIAGO against its type
Built in 2019, it is 9 years newer than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 82,305 gross tonnage it is larger than 78% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 139 oil tankers here under the Hong Kong flag, 3.9% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 193 of them oil tankers. Its MRV returns name it MARLIN SANTIAGO for 2019 and FRONT SANTIAGO for 2020–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Singapore (2019), then HONGKONG (2020), then Hong Kong (2021–2024), then HONGKONG (2025).
Its 15,837 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.0 times the median of 7,922 t among the 1,704 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 396.0 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 403.2 kg. It logged 4,046 hours at sea against a median of 2,030 hours for its type that year. 8.3% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.8%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (24,376 t) and the lowest 2020 (1,825 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 1 in 2019 to 27 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 389 of 1,448 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 27th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.5; this vessel reported 5.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 2,759,005,226 tonne-miles over 39,992 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 186.1% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 10.3% while distance sailed rose 14.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 3.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
