LEGACY against its type
Built in 2008, it is 2 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 61,449 gross tonnage it is larger than 55% 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 563 other vessels here, 217 of them oil tankers. The returns for 2018–2022 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 33,779 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 4.7 times the median of 7,189 t among the 1,939 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 1,494.7 kg CO₂, 3.6 times the type median of 415.9 kg. It logged 2,446 hours at sea against a median of 1,731 hours for its type that year. 3.2% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 9.1%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (33,779 t) and the lowest 2018 (17,397 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 38 in 2018 to 96 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2022 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 1,697 of 1,771 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 96th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 26.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,269,401,353 tonne-miles over 22,599 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 94.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2021 to 2022, emissions rose 66.4% while distance sailed fell 42.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 187.8%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
