SONANGOL PORTO AMBOIM against its type
Built in 2012, it is 2 years newer than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 83,753 gross tonnage it is larger than 81% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 180 oil tankers here under the Bahamas flag, 5.1% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 660 other vessels here, 159 of them oil tankers. The returns for 2019–2024 all give Nassau as port of registry.
Its 6,851 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 16% below the median of 8,196 t among the 1,808 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 420.0 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 408.2 kg. It logged 1,570 hours at sea against a median of 2,020 hours for its type that year. 4.5% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.2%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (17,921 t) and the lowest 2020 (3,534 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 12 in 2019 to 15 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 234 of 1,566 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 15th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 4.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,448,452,431 tonne-miles over 16,312 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 38.9% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 57.6% while distance sailed fell 57.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 0.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
