RAPTOR 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 83,722 gross tonnage it is larger than 81% 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 38 other vessels here, 14 of them oil tankers. Its MRV returns name it RIDGEBURY NICHOLAS A for 2018–2021 and RAPTOR for 2023. The reported port of registry changed: Majuro (2018–2021), then Monrovia (2023).
Its 13,780 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 1.8 times the median of 7,491 t among the 1,850 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 488.9 kg CO₂, 20% above the type median of 408.5 kg. It logged 3,204 hours at sea against a median of 1,807 hours for its type that year. 8.8% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.4%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (13,780 t) and the lowest 2020 (4,133 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 76 in 2018 to 34 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2023 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 543 of 1,615 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 34th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 6.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 2,116,686,636 tonne-miles over 28,184 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 117.8% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2023, emissions rose 59.5% while distance sailed rose 81.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 12.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
