KAREKARE against its type
Built in 2017, it is 7 years newer than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 82,870 gross tonnage it is larger than 80% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 289 oil tankers here under the Malta flag, 8.1% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 194 other vessels here, 56 of them oil tankers. The reported port of registry changed: Valletta (2019–2021), then Majuro (2022–2023), then Valletta (2024–2025).
Its 15,531 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.0 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 475.2 kg CO₂, 18% above the type median of 403.2 kg. It logged 3,091 hours at sea against a median of 2,030 hours for its type that year. 13.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.8%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (15,531 t) and the lowest 2021 (4,018 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 44 in 2019 to 40 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 7 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 584 of 1,448 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 40th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.5; this vessel reported 6.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 2,304,314,540 tonne-miles over 32,685 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 117.0% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 5.6% while distance sailed fell 7.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 14.1%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
