Kickster’s analysis of 8,973 vessels using public EU MRV data placed 2,036 in a minor analytical-deficit category and 1,596 in a major category, or 40.5% combined, with 3,620 (40.3%) classed as having an estimated surplus and 1,721 close to balance. The consultancy cautioned these are not official FuelEU compliance balances, as the MRV dataset lacks verified well-to-wake greenhouse gas intensity, pooling allocations, banking, or borrowing data. Official figures show over 13,000 FuelEU reports were verified from January to March 2026, with more than 12,000 compliance balance reports covering over 90% of the fleet deemed satisfactory and around 90% of vessels using pooling.
