LUZERN against its type
Built in 2007, it is 3 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 24,048 gross tonnage it is smaller than 89% 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 192 other vessels here, 71 of them oil tankers. Its MRV returns name it NORD BELL for 2018–2020, LUZERN for 2021–2022 and MERENGUE for 2023–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Copenhagen (2018–2020), then Monrovia (2021–2025).
Its 595 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 92% 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 667.7 kg CO₂, 1.7 times the type median of 403.2 kg. It logged 210 hours at sea against a median of 2,030 hours for its type that year. 4.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.8%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (14,711 t) and the lowest 2025 (595 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 83 in 2018 to 93 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 94.8% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 50.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 57.3%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
