GULF HORIZON against its type
Built in 2005, it is 5 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 42,443 gross tonnage it is smaller than 61% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 180 oil tankers here under the Bahamas flag, 5.1% 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 GULF HORIZON for 2018–2022 and JAG SPARROW for 2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Nassau as port of registry.
Its 1,953 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 75% 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 320.1 kg CO₂, 21% below the type median of 403.2 kg. It logged 489 hours at sea against a median of 2,030 hours for its type that year. 1.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.8%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (7,189 t) and the lowest 2025 (1,953 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 48 in 2021 to 44 in 2022 (lower is more efficient).

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 62.5% lower than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2025, emissions fell 72.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
