Its 1,336 t of CO₂ for 2021 is 83% below the median of 7,717 t among the 1,777 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2021. Per nautical mile it emitted 110.8 kg CO₂, 73% below the type median of 409.1 kg. It logged 1,065 hours at sea against a median of 1,921 hours for its type that year. 4.6% of its 2021 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.8%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (2,344 t) and the lowest 2021 (1,336 t). Of the 5 comparable vessels listed below with a 2021 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year

2018: 2,330 t20182,3302019: 2,344 t20192021: 1,336 t20211,336

Reported CO₂ in 2021 was 42.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, so the series has gaps.

From 2019 to 2021, emissions fell 43.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 21.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 3 MRV reporting years and 2 of 5 vessel particulars. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a name history, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
