CHEM TAURUS against its type
Built in 2010, it is the same age as the median chemical tanker on this register (build year 2010, 1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 11,655 gross tonnage it is smaller than 75% 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 2018–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 9,755 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 214.7 kg CO₂, 14% below the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 3,742 hours at sea against a median of 2,106 hours for its type that year. 3.9% 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 (9,755 t) and the lowest 2020 (4,655 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 65 in 2018 to 44 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
