NEW HORIZON against its type

Built in 2012, it is 2 years newer than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 164,680 gross tonnage it is larger than 98% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 139 oil tankers here under the Hong Kong flag, 3.9% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 194 other vessels here, 56 of them oil tankers. The returns for 2018–2023 all give Hong Kong as port of registry.

Its 5,887 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 21% below the median of 7,491 t among the 1,850 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 726.4 kg CO₂, 1.8 times the type median of 408.5 kg. It logged 588 hours at sea against a median of 1,807 hours for its type that year. 14.5% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.4%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (17,794 t) and the lowest 2023 (5,887 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 4 in 2018 to 45 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2023 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2023

Position 729 of 1,615 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 45th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 7.4.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 792,286,676 tonne-miles over 8,104 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

2018: 12,298 t201812,2982019: 17,794 t20192023: 5,887 t20235,887

Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 52.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.

From 2019 to 2023, emissions fell 66.9% while distance sailed fell 57.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 22.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
