STEN FRIGG against its type
Built in 2009, it is 1 year older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 11,935 gross tonnage it is smaller than 94% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 56 oil tankers here under the Portugal flag, 1.6% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 98 other vessels here, 19 of them oil tankers. The reported port of registry changed: Gibraltar (2018–2020), then Bergen (2021–2023), then Madeira (2024–2025).
Its 8,858 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 12% above the median of 7,922 t among the 1,704 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 208.9 kg CO₂, 48% below the type median of 403.2 kg. It logged 4,257 hours at sea against a median of 2,030 hours for its type that year. 15.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.8%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (9,164 t) and the lowest 2023 (6,823 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 92 in 2018 to 96 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,393 of 1,448 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 96th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.5; this vessel reported 26.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 331,764,045 tonne-miles over 42,402 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 5.8% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 21.0% while distance sailed rose 16.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
