BOW FORTUNE against its type

Built in 1999, it is 11 years older than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 23,206 gross tonnage it is smaller than 50% 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. The same builder is recorded for 25 other vessels here, 20 of them chemical tankers. The reported port of registry changed: Bergen (2018–2021), then Majuro (2022–2024).

Its 14,030 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 2.4 times the median of 5,830 t among the 1,451 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 283.8 kg CO₂, 12% above the type median of 253.5 kg. It logged 4,099 hours at sea against a median of 2,177 hours for its type that year. 5.7% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 5.9%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (14,030 t) and the lowest 2018 (2,391 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 38 in 2018 to 36 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2024 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 429 of 1,194 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 36th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.9; this vessel reported 12.7.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,106,505,520 tonne-miles over 49,440 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 486.8% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 149.9% while distance sailed rose 165.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 5.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
