SEA LUCK III against its type
Built in 2003, it is 7 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). It is one of 289 oil tankers here under the Malta flag, 8.1% of the 3,548 on the register. The returns for 2018–2023 all give Valletta as port of registry.
Its 2,033 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 73% 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 438.0 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 408.5 kg. It logged 400 hours at sea against a median of 1,807 hours for its type that year. 3.2% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.4%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (6,195 t) and the lowest 2023 (2,033 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 47 in 2018 to 15 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 comparable vessels listed below with a 2023 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 242 of 1,615 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 15th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 5.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 396,319,688 tonne-miles over 4,642 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 67.2% 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 53.4% while distance sailed fell 41.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 20.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
