STAR KESTREL 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 30,068 gross tonnage it is larger than 92% 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 returns for 2019–2025 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 4,761 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 18% below the median of 5,830 t among the 1,451 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 342.8 kg CO₂, 35% above the type median of 253.5 kg. It logged 1,173 hours at sea against a median of 2,177 hours for its type that year. 12.2% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 5.9%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (4,761 t) and the lowest 2018 (2,380 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 6 in 2018 to 28 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 340 of 1,194 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 28th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.9; this vessel reported 11.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 420,925,729 tonne-miles over 13,886 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 100.1% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2019 to 2024, emissions rose 32.9% while distance sailed rose 34.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 1.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
