GASCHEM ORCA against its type
Built in 2017, it is 4 years newer than the median gas carrier on this register, which was built in 2013 (530 vessels with a known build year). At 28,580 gross tonnage it is larger than 59% of the other 525 gas carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 131 gas carriers here under the Liberia flag, 19.0% of the 688 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 139 other vessels here, 3 of them gas carriers. The returns for 2018–2020 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 23,060 t of CO₂ for 2020 is 4.0 times the median of 5,725 t among the 326 gas carriers on this register that reported for 2020. Per nautical mile it emitted 263.1 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 278.9 kg. It logged 5,917 hours at sea against a median of 1,563 hours for its type that year. 1.1% of its 2020 emissions were at berth; the median for gas carriers was 5.0%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (29,601 t) and the lowest 2020 (23,060 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 22 in 2018 to 31 in 2020 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2020
Position 95 of 308 qualifying gas carriers by EEOI, at the 31st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 39.4; this vessel reported 24.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 937,013,409 tonne-miles over 87,650 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2020 was 12.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2019 to 2020, emissions fell 22.1% while distance sailed fell 25.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 4.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
