KAVERI SPIRIT against its type
Built in 2004, it is 6 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 81,074 gross tonnage it is larger than 71% 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. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 193 of them oil tankers. Its MRV returns name it KAVERI SPIRIT for 2018–2021 and ONISILOS for 2023. The reported port of registry changed: Nassau (2018–2021), then Monrovia (2023).
Its 12,841 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 1.7 times the median of 7,491 t among the 1,850 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 484.8 kg CO₂, 19% above the type median of 408.5 kg. It logged 2,073 hours at sea against a median of 1,807 hours for its type that year. 5.9% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.4%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (12,841 t) and the lowest 2019 (3,609 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 40 in 2018 to 10 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 159 of 1,615 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 10th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 4.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 2,749,601,713 tonne-miles over 26,488 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 135.3% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2023, emissions rose 136.6% while distance sailed rose 374.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 50.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
