HIGH PRIORITY: CO₂ emissions 2018–2023

HIGH PRIORITY 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 28,245 gross tonnage it is smaller than 83% 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. Its MRV returns name it HIGH PRIORITY for 2018–2021 and PRIORITY C for 2022–2023. The reported port of registry changed: VALLETTA (2018–2020), then Monrovia (2021–2023).

Its 6,153 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 18% below the median of 7,491 t among the 1,850 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 296.8 kg CO₂, 27% below the type median of 408.5 kg. It logged 1,855 hours at sea against a median of 1,807 hours for its type that year. 18.4% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.4%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (9,258 t) and the lowest 2021 (2,082 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 54 in 2018 to 57 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2023 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2023

Position 919 of 1,615 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 57th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 8.7.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 711,323,699 tonne-miles over 20,729 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 10.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2022 to 2023, emissions rose 124.9% while distance sailed rose 123.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 0.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
