TARANAKI SUN against its type
It is one of 48 chemical tankers here under the Cayman Islands flag, 2.0% of the 2,344 on the register. The returns for 2018–2024 all give GEORGE TOWN as port of registry.
Its 8,560 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 47% above the median of 5,830 t among the 1,451 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 250.9 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 253.5 kg. It logged 3,172 hours at sea against a median of 2,177 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 5.9%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (8,560 t) and the lowest 2018 (2,286 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type was 32 in both 2018 and 2023.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 396 of 1,230 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 32nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.6; this vessel reported 12.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 328,610,584 tonne-miles over 15,658 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 274.4% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 105.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 5.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
