TAI AN KOU against its type

Built in 2002, it is 7 years older than the median vessel in the other ship types category on this register, which was built in 2009 (451 vessels with a known build year). At 15,840 gross tonnage it is larger than 70% of the other 436 vessels in the other ship types category with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 32 vessels in the other ship types category here under the China flag, 6.4% of the 499 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 192 other vessels here, 6 of them vessels in the other ship types category. The returns for 2020–2025 all give Guangzhou as port of registry.

Its 3,349 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 35% below the median of 5,122 t among the 335 vessels in the other ship types category on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 317.1 kg CO₂, 37% above the type median of 231.1 kg. It logged 1,013 hours at sea against a median of 2,231 hours for its type that year. 2.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vessels in the other ship types category was 3.9%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (10,438 t) and the lowest 2025 (3,349 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 67 in 2020 to 89 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
