AFRICAN A against its type
Built in 1986, it is 21 years older than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). It is one of 67 general cargo ships here under the Palau flag, 2.2% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 2 of them general cargo ships. The returns for 2023–2024 all give MALAKAL as port of registry.
Its 123 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 97% below the median of 4,046 t among the 1,395 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 97.3 kg CO₂, 48% below the type median of 187.0 kg. It logged 154 hours at sea against a median of 2,074 hours for its type that year. 3.4% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 3.9%. The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2024 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.
