BDP SPIRIT against its type
Built in 2009, it is 1 year older than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 8,816 gross tonnage it is smaller than 83% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 474 chemical tankers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 20.2% of the 2,344 on the register. Its MRV returns name it LEVANA for 2018–2020 and BDP SPIRIT for 2021–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Gibraltar (2018–2020), then Majuro (2021–2025).
Its 2,406 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 59% 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 248.7 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 253.5 kg. It logged 1,078 hours at sea against a median of 2,177 hours for its type that year. 1.1% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 5.9%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (10,252 t) and the lowest 2023 (1,930 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 97 in 2019 to 83 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel 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.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 994 of 1,194 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 83rd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.9; this vessel reported 32.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 74,986,912 tonne-miles over 9,676 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 63.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 24.7% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 2.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
