BW VOLANS against its type
Built in 2016, it is 3 years newer than the median gas carrier on this register, which was built in 2013 (530 vessels with a known build year). At 47,342 gross tonnage it is larger than 78% of the other 525 gas carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 24 gas carriers here under the Isle of Man flag, 3.5% of the 688 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 100 of them gas carriers. The returns for 2018–2020 all give Douglas as port of registry.
Its 13,386 t of CO₂ for 2020 is 2.3 times the median of 5,725 t among the 326 gas carriers on this register that reported for 2020. Per nautical mile it emitted 393.7 kg CO₂, 41% above the type median of 278.9 kg. It logged 2,312 hours at sea against a median of 1,563 hours for its type that year. 6.6% of its 2020 emissions were at berth; the median for gas carriers was 5.0%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (17,219 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,542 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 13 in 2018 to 17 in 2020 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2020
Position 53 of 308 qualifying gas carriers by EEOI, at the 17th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 39.4; this vessel reported 17.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 765,810,641 tonne-miles over 34,005 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2020 was 768.3% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2019 to 2020, emissions fell 22.3% while distance sailed fell 19.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 3.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
