ORIENTAL KING against its type
Built in 2017, it is 4 years newer than the median gas carrier on this register, which was built in 2013 (530 vessels with a known build year). At 48,008 gross tonnage it is larger than 89% of the other 525 gas carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 14 gas carriers here under the Hong Kong flag, 2.0% of the 688 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 100 of them gas carriers. Anglo Eastern Shipmanagement Pte Ltd. is linked to 70 vessels on this register. The returns for 2021–2025 all give HONG KONG as port of registry.
Its 7,622 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 28% above the median of 5,974 t among the 363 gas carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 359.1 kg CO₂, 40% above the type median of 256.2 kg. It logged 1,427 hours at sea against a median of 1,943 hours for its type that year. 2.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for gas carriers was 3.8%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (7,622 t) and the lowest 2021 (1,627 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 1 in 2019 to 17 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 51 of 292 qualifying gas carriers by EEOI, at the 17th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 27.9; this vessel reported 15.4.
Across the 58 ranked vessels operated by Anglo Eastern Shipmanagement Pte Ltd., the median percentile is 43. This vessel is more efficient than its own fleet median.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 493,643,135 tonne-miles over 21,227 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 234.8% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2025, emissions rose 79.7% while distance sailed rose 89.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 5.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
