FRONT SPARTA 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 461 other vessels here, 179 of them oil tankers. The returns for 2020–2024 all give Hong Kong as port of registry.
Its 13,844 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 454.9 kg CO₂, 11% above the type median of 408.2 kg. It logged 2,828 hours at sea against a median of 2,020 hours for its type that year. 6.7% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.2%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (20,808 t) and the lowest 2019 (5,606 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 34 in 2019 to 70 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 1,098 of 1,566 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 70th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 9.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,446,643,678 tonne-miles over 30,433 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 146.9% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 22.3% while distance sailed rose 28.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 5.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
