AFRAPEARL against its type

Built in 2007, it is 3 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). It is one of 718 oil tankers here under the Liberia flag, 20.2% of the 3,548 on the register. Its MRV returns name it AFRAPEARL for 2022 and EMERALD I for 2023. The returns for 2022–2023 all give MONROVIA as port of registry.

Its 4,722 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 37% below the median of 7,491 t among the 1,850 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 510.5 kg CO₂, 25% above the type median of 408.5 kg. It logged 786 hours at sea against a median of 1,807 hours for its type that year. 3.6% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.4%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 25 in 2022 to 17 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2023 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 890,949,057 tonne-miles over 9,250 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

2022: 7,474 t20227,4742023: 4,722 t20234,722

Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 36.8% lower than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 36.8% while distance sailed fell 50.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 26.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
