CAROLINE ESSBERGER against its type

Built in 2009, it is 1 year older than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 5,642 gross tonnage it is smaller than 96% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 15 chemical tankers here under the Netherlands flag, 0.6% of the 2,344 on the register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Dordrecht as port of registry.

Its 9,727 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.8 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 163.1 kg CO₂, 35% below the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 5,338 hours at sea against a median of 2,106 hours for its type that year. 7.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (9,727 t) and the lowest 2019 (6,390 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 92 in 2018 to 86 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 1,158 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 86th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 31.9.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 304,838,609 tonne-miles over 59,648 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 18.6% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 13.4% while distance sailed rose 13.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 0.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
