CHEM HYDRA 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 11,939 gross tonnage it is smaller than 70% 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 returns for 2019–2024 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 1,325 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 77% below the median of 5,830 t among the 1,451 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 228.3 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 253.5 kg. It logged 568 hours at sea against a median of 2,177 hours for its type that year. 1.7% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 5.9%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (9,667 t) and the lowest 2019 (413 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 68 in 2021 to 91 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2024 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 220.9% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 86.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 14.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
