BUNGA LUCERNE 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 11,925 gross tonnage it is smaller than 71% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 5 chemical tankers here under the Vietnam flag, 0.2% of the 2,344 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 52 other vessels here, 48 of them chemical tankers. Its MRV returns name it BUNGA LUCERNE for 2018 and PVT AURORA for 2022–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Singapore (2018), then Sai Gon (2022–2025).
Its 3,120 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 44% below the median of 5,533 t among the 1,483 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 250.9 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 1,158 hours at sea against a median of 2,109 hours for its type that year. 2.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (6,394 t) and the lowest 2024 (925 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 46 in 2022 to 64 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 859 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 64th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 18.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 171,879,339 tonne-miles over 12,432 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 7.5% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 237.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 4.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
