ELLEN ESSBERGER against its type
Built in 2004, it is 6 years older than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 5,955 gross tonnage it is smaller than 94% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 71 chemical tankers here under the Portugal flag, 3.0% of the 2,344 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 10 other vessels here, 7 of them chemical tankers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Madeira as port of registry.
Its 8,147 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 47% above the median of 5,533 t among the 1,483 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 154.6 kg CO₂, 38% below the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 4,651 hours at sea against a median of 2,109 hours for its type that year. 10.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (9,557 t) and the lowest 2022 (7,957 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 92 in 2018 to 93 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
