PALU LNG against its type
Built in 2014, it is the same age as the median LNG carrier on this register (build year 2014, 396 vessels with a known build year). At 103,885 gross tonnage it is smaller than 67% of the other 377 LNG carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 60 LNG carriers here under the Malta flag, 11.2% of the 538 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 660 other vessels here, 109 of them LNG carriers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Valletta as port of registry.
Its 30,744 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 43% above the median of 21,516 t among the 351 LNG carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 533.0 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 533.6 kg. It logged 4,509 hours at sea against a median of 2,940 hours for its type that year. 3.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for LNG carriers was 2.0%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (39,801 t) and the lowest 2021 (468 t). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2020
Position 29 of 308 qualifying gas carriers by EEOI, at the 9th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 39.4; this vessel reported 15.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 687,990,692 tonne-miles over 16,779 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 130.0% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 22.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 10.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
