OCEANIC CRIMSON 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 8,550 gross tonnage it is smaller than 84% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 259 chemical tankers here under the Panama flag, 11.0% of the 2,344 on the register. Its MRV returns name it OCEANIC CRIMSON for 2018 and RF ALICE for 2020–2021. The returns for 2018–2021 all give Panama as port of registry.
Its 3,772 t of CO₂ for 2021 is 38% below the median of 6,071 t among the 1,418 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2021. Per nautical mile it emitted 206.6 kg CO₂, 21% below the type median of 262.7 kg. It logged 1,825 hours at sea against a median of 2,112 hours for its type that year. 12.0% of its 2021 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 8.4%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 83 in 2020 to 77 in 2021 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2021
Position 969 of 1,261 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 77th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 16.1; this vessel reported 25.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 148,372,541 tonne-miles over 18,253 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2021 was 37.1% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2021, emissions fell 37.1% while distance sailed fell 42.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 9.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
