FS SINCERITY 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 28,797 gross tonnage it is smaller than 81% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 289 oil tankers here under the Malta flag, 8.1% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 114 other vessels here, 20 of them oil tankers. Its MRV returns name it FS SINCERITY for 2018 and JANINE K for 2021–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Panama (2018), then Valletta (2021–2025).
Its 2,239 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 72% below the median of 7,922 t among the 1,704 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 307.4 kg CO₂, 24% below the type median of 403.2 kg. It logged 755 hours at sea against a median of 2,030 hours for its type that year. 4.9% 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 (6,319 t) and the lowest 2023 (1,152 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 41 in 2021 to 90 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2025 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 37.0% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 30.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 17.3%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
