LAS CUEVAS against its type
Built in 2000, it is 10 years older than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 27,955 gross tonnage it is larger than 65% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 8 chemical tankers here under the United Kingdom flag, 0.3% of the 2,344 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 69 other vessels here, 6 of them chemical tankers. The returns for 2018–2020 all give DOUGLAS as port of registry.
Its 5,261 t of CO₂ for 2020 is 19% below the median of 6,525 t among the 1,371 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2020. Per nautical mile it emitted 275.5 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 269.8 kg. It logged 1,411 hours at sea against a median of 2,232 hours for its type that year. 0.1% of its 2020 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 8.1%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (7,306 t) and the lowest 2018 (3,281 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 41 in 2018 to 40 in 2020 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2020
Position 499 of 1,250 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 40th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.8; this vessel reported 14.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 372,591,360 tonne-miles over 19,096 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2020 was 60.4% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2019 to 2020, emissions fell 28.0% while distance sailed rose 0.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 28.3%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
