LNG MEGREZ against its type
It is one of 16 LNG carriers here under the Hong Kong flag, 3.0% of the 538 on the register. The returns for 2020–2024 all give Hong Kong as port of registry.
Its 40,554 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 2.6 times the median of 15,704 t among the 348 LNG carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 480.5 kg CO₂, 13% below the type median of 552.7 kg. It logged 5,288 hours at sea against a median of 2,215 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for LNG carriers was 1.6%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (40,960 t) and the lowest 2020 (16,637 t). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2024 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 143.8% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 56.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 2.4%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
