CHAMPION STAR against its type

Built in 2004, it is 6 years older than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 27,357 gross tonnage it is larger than 64% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 402 chemical tankers here under the Liberia flag, 17.2% of the 2,344 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 54 other vessels here, 9 of them chemical tankers. Its MRV returns name it THELMA VICTORY for 2018–2022 and CHAMPION STAR for 2023–2024. The reported port of registry changed: Bergen (2019–2022), then Monrovia (2023–2024).

Its 6,035 t of CO₂ for 2024 is close to the median of 5,830 t among the 1,451 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 320.8 kg CO₂, 27% above the type median of 253.5 kg. It logged 1,591 hours at sea against a median of 2,177 hours for its type that year. 2.3% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 5.9%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (11,372 t) and the lowest 2024 (6,035 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 18 in 2018 to 13 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 161 of 1,194 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 13th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.9; this vessel reported 8.9.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 13th percentile, EEOI 8.9

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 677,352,413 tonne-miles over 18,811 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 11.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, so the series has gaps.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 13.1% while distance sailed fell 22.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 12.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
