TAURUS 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 29,734 gross tonnage it is smaller than 75% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 718 oil tankers here under the Liberia flag, 20.2% of the 3,548 on the register. The returns for 2020–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.

Its 4,837 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 41% 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 341.5 kg CO₂, 16% below the type median of 408.2 kg. It logged 1,231 hours at sea against a median of 2,020 hours for its type that year. 8.7% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (7,680 t) and the lowest 2022 (1,334 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 10 in 2020 to 85 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 1,325 of 1,566 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 85th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 13.2.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 365,575,208 tonne-miles over 14,161 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 31.1% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 37.0% while distance sailed fell 41.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 7.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
