SOPHIA KOSAN against its type
Built in 2008, it is 5 years older than the median gas carrier on this register, which was built in 2013 (530 vessels with a known build year). At 9,175 gross tonnage it is smaller than 78% of the other 525 gas carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 106 gas carriers here under the Singapore flag, 15.4% of the 688 on the register. The returns for 2020–2025 all give Singapore as port of registry.
Its 8,065 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 35% above the median of 5,974 t among the 363 gas carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 243.1 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 256.2 kg. It logged 3,366 hours at sea against a median of 1,943 hours for its type that year. 19.3% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for gas carriers was 3.8%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (12,086 t) and the lowest 2021 (3,215 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 60 in 2018 to 96 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
