CARTAGENA 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 29,341 gross tonnage it is larger than 72% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 2 chemical tankers here under the Libya flag, 0.1% of the 2,344 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 983 other vessels here, 330 of them chemical tankers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give ZUARA as port of registry.
Its 4,401 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 20% below the median of 5,531 t among the 1,484 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 283.6 kg CO₂, 13% above the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 1,332 hours at sea against a median of 2,106 hours for its type that year. 6.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (10,767 t) and the lowest 2021 (1,721 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 55 in 2018 to 18 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 250 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 18th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 9.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 490,101,336 tonne-miles over 15,519 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 59.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 38.6% while distance sailed fell 26.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 16.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
