KING QUEST against its type
Built in 2017, it is 9 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 62,105 gross tonnage it is larger than 73% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 20 vehicle carriers here under the Singapore flag, 2.8% of the 713 on the register. Its MRV returns name it VIKING CONQUEST for 2018–2020 and KING QUEST for 2022–2024. The returns for 2018–2024 all give Singapore as port of registry.
Its 11,140 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 31% above the median of 8,474 t among the 465 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 292.5 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 320.4 kg. It logged 2,664 hours at sea against a median of 1,799 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 2.2%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (14,926 t) and the lowest 2022 (1,278 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 65 in 2018 to 47 in 2020 (lower is more efficient).

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 25.4% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2024, emissions rose 771.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 11.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
