LARA against its type
Built in 2007, it is 3 years older than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 30,120 gross tonnage it is larger than 93% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 402 chemical tankers here under the Liberia flag, 17.2% of the 2,344 on the register. Its MRV returns name it LARA for 2018–2019 and PERICLES for 2022–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Majuro (2018–2019), then Monrovia (2022–2025).
Its 1,710 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 68% below the median of 5,393 t among the 1,411 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 419.2 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 258.0 kg. It logged 436 hours at sea against a median of 1,919 hours for its type that year. 4.9% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 8.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (13,836 t) and the lowest 2023 (1,710 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 60 in 2018 to 70 in 2022 (lower is more efficient).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 62.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 44.4% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 14.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

This page draws on 5 MRV reporting years, 4 of 5 vessel particulars and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.
Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
