COURAGE 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 29,575 gross tonnage it is larger than 77% 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 same builder is recorded for 983 other vessels here, 330 of them chemical tankers. Its MRV returns name it NCC DAMMAM for 2018–2021 and COURAGE for 2023–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Dammam (2018–2021), then MONROVIA (2023–2025).
Its 6,091 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 10% 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 347.6 kg CO₂, 39% above the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 1,564 hours at sea against a median of 2,106 hours for its type that year. 5.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (10,293 t) and the lowest 2018 (5,264 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 25 in 2018 to 46 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 617 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 46th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 13.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 445,934,846 tonne-miles over 17,527 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 15.7% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 29.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 7.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
