LIBRA SUN against its type
Built in 2010, it is the same age as the median oil tanker on this register (build year 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 2018–2020 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 3,054 t of CO₂ for 2020 is 65% below the median of 8,732 t among the 1,884 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2020. Per nautical mile it emitted 498.2 kg CO₂, 17% above the type median of 424.6 kg. It logged 592 hours at sea against a median of 1,939 hours for its type that year. 34.5% of its 2020 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.6%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (13,905 t) and the lowest 2020 (3,054 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 0 in 2018 to 2 in 2020 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2020
Position 35 of 1,708 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 2nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.7; this vessel reported 2.9.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,071,596,491 tonne-miles over 6,130 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2020 was 64.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2019 to 2020, emissions fell 78.0% while distance sailed fell 69.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 28.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
