PROMETHEUS LIGHT against its type
It is one of 793 oil tankers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 22.4% of the 3,548 on the register. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 14,364 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.8 times the median of 7,922 t among the 1,704 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 386.0 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 403.2 kg. It logged 4,334 hours at sea against a median of 2,030 hours for its type that year. 13.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.8%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (22,339 t) and the lowest 2023 (10,262 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 36 in 2019 to 67 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 966 of 1,448 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 67th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.5; this vessel reported 9.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,575,044,956 tonne-miles over 37,217 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 12.2% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 26.9% while distance sailed fell 27.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
