GOLAR SNOW against its type
Built in 2015, it is 1 year newer than the median LNG carrier on this register, which was built in 2014 (396 vessels with a known build year). At 102,200 gross tonnage it is smaller than 69% of the other 377 LNG carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 111 LNG carriers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 20.6% of the 538 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 563 other vessels here, 82 of them LNG carriers. Its MRV returns name it GOLAR SNOW for 2018–2022 and KOOL BLIZZARD for 2023–2024. The returns for 2018–2024 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 11,159 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 29% below the median of 15,704 t among the 348 LNG carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 603.5 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 552.7 kg. It logged 1,380 hours at sea against a median of 2,215 hours for its type that year. 1.3% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for LNG carriers was 1.6%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (91,597 t) and the lowest 2024 (11,159 t).

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 87.8% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 49.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 15.4%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
