SEA HYMN against its type

Built in 2011, it is 1 year newer than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 62,884 gross tonnage it is larger than 63% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 793 oil tankers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 22.4% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 660 other vessels here, 159 of them oil tankers. Its MRV returns name it SIGNAL ALPHA for 2018–2021 and SEA HYMN for 2023–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Valletta (2018–2021), then Majuro (2023–2025).

Its 2,703 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 66% 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 525.8 kg CO₂, 30% above the type median of 403.2 kg. It logged 427 hours at sea against a median of 2,030 hours for its type that year. 10.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.8%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (29,720 t) and the lowest 2025 (2,703 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 67 in 2018 to 65 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 948 of 1,448 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 65th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.5; this vessel reported 8.9.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 65th percentile, EEOI 8.9

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 302,657,335 tonne-miles over 5,140 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 85.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 68.7% while distance sailed fell 65.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 10.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 7 MRV reporting years, an efficiency ranking, 5 of 5 vessel particulars and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
