GEMINI SUN against its type
Built in 2008, it is 2 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 59,164 gross tonnage it is smaller than 50% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 718 oil tankers here under the Liberia flag, 20.2% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 103 other vessels here, 28 of them oil tankers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 13,363 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.7 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 398.0 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 403.2 kg. It logged 3,277 hours at sea against a median of 2,030 hours for its type that year. 13.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.8%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (22,328 t) and the lowest 2018 (3,986 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 2 in 2018 to 57 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2025 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 823 of 1,448 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 57th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.5; this vessel reported 8.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,676,687,578 tonne-miles over 33,572 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 235.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 33.1% while distance sailed fell 28.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 7.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
