VELA against its type
Built in 2014, it is 4 years newer than the median chemical tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 29,531 gross tonnage it is larger than 76% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 205 chemical tankers here under the Singapore flag, 8.7% of the 2,344 on the register. The reported port of registry changed: HONG KONG (2020–2024), then Singapore (2025).
Its 8,781 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.6 times the median of 5,533 t among the 1,483 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 327.5 kg CO₂, 31% above the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 2,378 hours at sea against a median of 2,109 hours for its type that year. 11.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (9,602 t) and the lowest 2020 (5,290 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 8 in 2020 to 23 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 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 309 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 23rd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 9.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 908,018,614 tonne-miles over 26,809 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 66.0% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 14.5% while distance sailed rose 9.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 4.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
