ELARA against its type
Built in 2006, it is 4 years older than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 6,717 gross tonnage it is smaller than 92% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 8 chemical tankers here under the Tuvalu flag, 0.3% of the 2,344 on the register. Its MRV returns name it GUYENNE for 2018–2020, VS LARA for 2021–2024 and ELARA for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Luxembourg (2018–2020), then Valletta (2021–2024), then Funafuti (2025).
Its 5,081 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 5,533 t among the 1,483 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 212.9 kg CO₂, 15% below the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 3,424 hours at sea against a median of 2,109 hours for its type that year. 14.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (7,593 t) and the lowest 2023 (3,794 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 96 in 2020 to 98 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 5 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,327 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 98th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 57.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 88,602,790 tonne-miles over 23,868 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 33.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 2.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 6.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
