SOLAR SUSIE against its type
It is one of 402 chemical tankers here under the Liberia flag, 17.2% of the 2,344 on the register. The returns for 2021–2025 all give MONROVIA as port of registry.
Its 11,352 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.1 times the median of 5,531 t among the 1,484 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 261.6 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 4,114 hours at sea against a median of 2,106 hours for its type that year. 4.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (11,352 t) and the lowest 2021 (4,482 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 5 in 2022 to 6 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 84 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 6th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 7.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,523,712,752 tonne-miles over 43,387 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 153.3% higher than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 98.3% while distance sailed rose 83.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 8.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
