FAIRCHEM ROOIBOS against its type
Built in 2022, it is 12 years newer than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 12,101 gross tonnage it is smaller than 69% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 205 chemical tankers here under the Singapore flag, 8.7% 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 ROOIBOS for 2022–2024 and ROOIBOS GALAXY for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Majuro (2022–2024), then Singapore (2025).
Its 1,215 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 78% below the median of 5,531 t among the 1,484 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 154.4 kg CO₂, 38% below the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 630 hours at sea against a median of 2,106 hours for its type that year. 0.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (4,903 t) and the lowest 2025 (1,215 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 38 in 2022 to 21 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 279 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 21st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 9.2.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 131,452,381 tonne-miles over 7,868 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 63.1% lower than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 75.2% while distance sailed fell 67.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 23.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
