BRITISH ENGINEER against its type
Built in 2017, it is 7 years newer than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 30,948 gross tonnage it is larger than 97% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 218 chemical tankers here under the Malta flag, 9.3% 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 BRITISH ENGINEER for 2023–2024 and MIAMI LIGHT for 2025.
Its 10,637 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.9 times the median of 5,531 t among the 1,484 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 368.8 kg CO₂, 47% above the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 2,665 hours at sea against a median of 2,106 hours for its type that year. 18.3% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (15,004 t) and the lowest 2025 (10,637 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 38 in 2023 to 61 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 821 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 61st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 17.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 612,022,440 tonne-miles over 28,840 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 29.1% lower than in 2023, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 23.3% while distance sailed fell 26.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
