TIANLONG SPIRIT 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 85,037 gross tonnage it is larger than 85% 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 returns for 2018–2024 all give Nassau as port of registry.
Its 6,531 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 20% 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 547.8 kg CO₂, 34% above the type median of 408.2 kg. It logged 1,050 hours at sea against a median of 2,020 hours for its type that year. 9.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.2%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (27,167 t) and the lowest 2024 (6,531 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 87 in 2018 to 74 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 1,152 of 1,566 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 74th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 10.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 646,613,861 tonne-miles over 11,922 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 41.4% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 18.4% while distance sailed fell 12.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 7.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
