CHEMROAD POLARIS against its type
Built in 2014, it is 4 years newer than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 21,227 gross tonnage it is smaller than 54% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 259 chemical tankers here under the Panama flag, 11.0% of the 2,344 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 307 other vessels here, 98 of them chemical tankers. The reported port of registry changed: GEORGE TOWN (2018), then PANAMA (2020–2023).
Its 6,516 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 18% above the median of 5,531 t among the 1,484 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 228.4 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 2,218 hours at sea against a median of 2,106 hours for its type that year. 5.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (6,516 t) and the lowest 2020 (883 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 22 in 2018 to 41 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 555 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 41st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 12.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 507,876,851 tonne-miles over 28,532 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 140.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2021, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2025, emissions rose 13.9% while distance sailed rose 25.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 9.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
