KARA SEA against its type
Built in 2010, it is the same age as the median oil tanker on this register (build year 2010, 2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 59,180 gross tonnage it is larger than 50% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 237 oil tankers here under the Singapore flag, 6.7% 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 2020–2021 all give Singapore as port of registry.
Its 4,743 t of CO₂ for 2021 is 39% below the median of 7,717 t among the 1,777 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2021. Per nautical mile it emitted 548.3 kg CO₂, 34% above the type median of 409.1 kg. It logged 783 hours at sea against a median of 1,921 hours for its type that year. 5.1% of its 2021 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.8%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 40 in 2020 to 19 in 2021 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2021
Position 314 of 1,636 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 19th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.4; this vessel reported 5.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 868,695,971 tonne-miles over 8,651 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2021 was 55.7% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2020 to 2021, emissions fell 55.7% while distance sailed fell 67.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 35.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
