BLUE CRYSTAL against its type
Built in 2012, it is 2 years newer than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 11,271 gross tonnage it is smaller than 79% 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 BLUE CRYSTAL for 2018 and ENFORD for 2019.
Its 3,763 t of CO₂ for 2019 is 45% below the median of 6,823 t among the 1,352 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2019. Per nautical mile it emitted 205.4 kg CO₂, 26% below the type median of 279.2 kg. It logged 2,314 hours at sea against a median of 2,566 hours for its type that year. 5.2% of its 2019 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 8.3%. Of the 2 comparable vessels listed below with a 2019 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2019
Position 886 of 1,231 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 72nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 16.6; this vessel reported 22.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 166,581,673 tonne-miles over 18,316 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2019 was 157.4% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2018 to 2019, emissions rose 157.4% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 15.4%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
