DAVIDE B against its type
Built in 2016, it is 6 years newer than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 14,034 gross tonnage it is smaller than 63% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 218 chemical tankers here under the Malta flag, 9.3% of the 2,344 on the register. Its MRV returns name it DAVIDE B for 2019–2021, NQ ALPINIA for 2022–2023 and DIAVOLO ROSSO for 2024–2025. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Valletta as port of registry.
Its 11,145 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.0 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 248.9 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 3,930 hours at sea against a median of 2,106 hours for its type that year. 8.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (13,881 t) and the lowest 2019 (4,633 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 69 in 2019 to 67 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 901 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 67th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 19.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 570,663,594 tonne-miles over 44,774 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 140.6% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 19.7% while distance sailed fell 20.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 0.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
