LEO SUN against its type

Built in 2011, it is 1 year newer than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 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 718 oil tankers here under the Liberia flag, 20.2% 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 2018–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.

Its 1,498 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 81% below the median of 7,922 t among the 1,704 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 594.3 kg CO₂, 47% above the type median of 403.2 kg. It logged 459 hours at sea against a median of 2,030 hours for its type that year. 9.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.8%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (22,590 t) and the lowest 2025 (1,498 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 18 in 2019 to 45 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year

2018: 22,590 t201822,5902019: 3,661 t20192021: 2,010 t20212022: 11,619 t20222023: 12,920 t20232024: 19,369 t20242025: 1,498 t20251,498

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 93.4% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 92.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 47.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
