This ship has no verified emissions report. We estimate a band E from its segment, size and age (100% confidence).

Estimate, not a reported figure. Within one band 95% of the time on reported peers.

Read from the single most-recent AIS broadcast we hold for this hull — we keep no position history, so this is a point-in-time posture, not a dwell inference. Derived in-house from our own AIS feed; weight it by the broadcast age above.

A coverage-weighted blend of the 2 components we could read for this hull — the weights renormalise over only the components present, so a thin read is never inflated and a hull is never credited a “safe 0” for a signal it has no row for. This headline is flagged low-confidence (a thin or structural-only read) and should not be treated as a verdict. Higher means riskier. Derived in-house from government-open port-State-control, flag, sanctions and our own vessel data; weight it by the coverage above.

Estimate only — modelled from deadweight (hull geometry) using a first-principles hydrostatic model, not measured hydrostatic tables. The design draught it is anchored to is unreliable across the fleet.

declared bulker but density DWT/GT=0.95 is below the light-cargo cut 1.05 — under even a small bulker/tanker (typical >= 1.2); reads like a gas carrier or storage/FSO unit

The declared type conflicts with the class implied by the vessel’s size signals — a possible mis-declaration. Inferred via our shared size-based classifier.
