CHEM VENUS 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 11,625 gross tonnage it is smaller than 76% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 15 chemical tankers here under the South Korea flag, 0.6% of the 2,344 on the register. Its MRV returns name it CHEM VENUS for 2018–2021 and G SILVER for 2022–2024. The reported port of registry changed: Monrovia (2018–2021), then JEJU (2022–2024).
Its 2,233 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 62% 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 200.3 kg CO₂, 21% below the type median of 253.5 kg. It logged 959 hours at sea against a median of 2,177 hours for its type that year. 5.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 5.9%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (7,673 t) and the lowest 2024 (2,233 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 68 in 2018 to 50 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 591 of 1,194 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 50th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.9; this vessel reported 15.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 141,670,685 tonne-miles over 11,149 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 70.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 8.3% while distance sailed fell 9.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
