MELODY against its type
Built in 2008, it is 2 years older than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 24,066 gross tonnage it is larger than 56% 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 192 other vessels here, 87 of them chemical tankers. The returns for 2018–2022 all give MAJURO as port of registry.
Its 3,611 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 38% below the median of 5,807 t among the 1,486 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 372.1 kg CO₂, 40% above the type median of 266.3 kg. It logged 1,020 hours at sea against a median of 1,995 hours for its type that year. 3.6% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 8.6%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (8,642 t) and the lowest 2020 (230 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 57 in 2018 to 49 in 2022 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 652 of 1,334 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 49th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.7; this vessel reported 15.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 234,625,731 tonne-miles over 9,705 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 58.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2022, emissions rose 1,471.7% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 16.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
