BALTIC FROST against its type

Built in 2006, it is 4 years older than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 23,337 gross tonnage it is larger than 52% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 402 chemical tankers here under the Liberia flag, 17.2% of the 2,344 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 983 other vessels here, 330 of them chemical tankers. Its MRV returns name it BALTIC FROST for 2018–2022 and BALTIC ICE for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Valletta (2019–2022), then Monrovia (2024–2025).

Its 1,738 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 70% below the median of 5,830 t among the 1,451 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 544.9 kg CO₂, 2.1 times the type median of 253.5 kg. It logged 458 hours at sea against a median of 2,177 hours for its type that year. 20.1% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 5.9%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (14,824 t) and the lowest 2024 (1,738 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 72 in 2018 to 74 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2024 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 88.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, so the series has gaps.

From 2022 to 2024, emissions fell 81.6% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 36.0%.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 7 MRV reporting years, 5 of 5 vessel particulars, a name history and a licensed photograph. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, AIS movements in Norwegian waters, 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.
