VEGA SONG against its type
Built in 2018, it is 5 years newer than the median gas carrier on this register, which was built in 2013 (530 vessels with a known build year). At 46,250 gross tonnage it is larger than 67% of the other 525 gas carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 59 gas carriers here under the Malta flag, 8.6% of the 688 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 461 other vessels here, 17 of them gas carriers. The returns for 2022–2023 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 7,975 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 40% above the median of 5,702 t among the 338 gas carriers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 321.6 kg CO₂, 23% above the type median of 262.3 kg. It logged 1,749 hours at sea against a median of 1,868 hours for its type that year. 1.4% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for gas carriers was 4.5%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 4 in 2022 to 5 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 16 of 297 qualifying gas carriers by EEOI, at the 5th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 38.5; this vessel reported 11.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 703,898,500 tonne-miles over 24,796 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 328.7% higher than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions rose 328.7% while distance sailed rose 390.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 12.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
