XANTHOS: CO₂ emissions 2018–2024

XANTHOS against its type

Built in 2005, it is 5 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 35,711 gross tonnage it is smaller than 68% 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 same builder is recorded for 57 other vessels here, 42 of them oil tankers. The returns for 2018–2024 all give Monrovia as port of registry.

Its 2,322 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 72% 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 428.5 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 408.2 kg. It logged 508 hours at sea against a median of 2,020 hours for its type that year. 5.5% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.2%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (6,559 t) and the lowest 2024 (2,322 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 65 in 2018 to 51 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2024 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 795 of 1,566 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 51st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 7.7.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 302,705,346 tonne-miles over 5,419 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 46.5% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2022, so the series has gaps.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 38.2% while distance sailed fell 47.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 18.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
