ECO PALM DESERT against its type
Built in 2018, it is 8 years newer than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 29,463 gross tonnage it is larger than 74% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 474 chemical tankers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 20.2% of the 2,344 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 77 other vessels here, 27 of them chemical tankers. Its MRV returns name it ECO PALM DESERT for 2018–2019 and LARGO DESERT for 2020–2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 9,885 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.8 times the median of 5,533 t among the 1,483 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 267.2 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 3,400 hours at sea against a median of 2,109 hours for its type that year. 6.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (9,885 t) and the lowest 2020 (1,384 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 7 in 2018 to 10 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 141 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 10th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 8.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,238,705,514 tonne-miles over 36,997 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 221.3% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 217.2% while distance sailed rose 205.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
