MARLIN MODEST against its type
Built in 2019, it is 9 years newer than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 29,991 gross tonnage it is larger than 88% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 474 chemical tankers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 20.2% of the 2,344 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 77 other vessels here, 27 of them chemical tankers. Its MRV returns name it MARLIN MODEST for 2019–2020 and STI MODEST for 2021–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Singapore (2019–2022), then Majuro (2023–2025).
Its 9,001 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.6 times the median of 5,533 t among the 1,483 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 264.9 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 2,868 hours at sea against a median of 2,109 hours for its type that year. 6.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (9,001 t) and the lowest 2022 (845 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 44 in 2019 to 5 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 71 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 5th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 7.2.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,241,449,655 tonne-miles over 33,983 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 102.5% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2025, emissions rose 66.1% while distance sailed rose 47.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 12.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
