GULLFJELLET against its type
Built in 2015, it is 5 years newer than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 12,085 gross tonnage it is smaller than 69% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 95 chemical tankers here under the Norway flag, 4.1% 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 SUN PLOEG for 2018–2021 and GULLFJELLET for 2022–2025. The reported port of registry changed: George Town (2018–2021), then BERGEN (2022–2025).
Its 7,189 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 30% 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 232.5 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 2,767 hours at sea against a median of 2,109 hours for its type that year. 9.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (9,491 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,220 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 31 in 2018 to 86 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,154 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 86th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 31.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 226,785,489 tonne-miles over 30,916 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 489.4% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 24.3% while distance sailed fell 6.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 18.7%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
