FAIRCHEM COPPER against its type
Built in 2019, it is 9 years newer than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). 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 52 other vessels here, 48 of them chemical tankers. Its MRV returns name it FAIRCHEM COPPER for 2019–2023 and GINGA COPPER for 2025. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 6,576 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 19% 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 212.2 kg CO₂, 15% below the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 2,501 hours at sea against a median of 2,109 hours for its type that year. 5.7% 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 (6,576 t) and the lowest 2019 (2,240 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 50 in 2020 to 33 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 5 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 449 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 33rd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 11.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 567,905,009 tonne-miles over 30,984 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 193.6% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2025, emissions rose 100.1% while distance sailed rose 152.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 20.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
