CHEM EAGLE against its type
Built in 2008, it is 2 years older than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 17,822 gross tonnage it is smaller than 58% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 218 chemical tankers here under the Malta flag, 9.3% of the 2,344 on the register. Its MRV returns name it SICHEM EAGLE for 2018–2019, CHEM EAGLE for 2020–2022 and SONGA EAGLE for 2023–2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Valletta as port of registry.
Its 12,220 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.2 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 283.8 kg CO₂, 13% above the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 5,062 hours at sea against a median of 2,106 hours for its type that year. 13.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (13,135 t) and the lowest 2018 (5,440 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 82 in 2018 to 77 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,040 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 77th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 24.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 498,787,347 tonne-miles over 43,056 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 124.6% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 13.6% while distance sailed rose 8.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 5.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
