AFRICAN EAGLE against its type
Built in 2003, it is 9 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 17,944 gross tonnage it is smaller than 93% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 218 bulk carriers here under the Bahamas flag, 2.7% of the 8,138 on the register. The returns for 2019–2022 all give Nassau as port of registry.
Its 4,863 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 24% above the median of 3,908 t among the 3,902 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 244.6 kg CO₂, 15% below the type median of 288.1 kg. It logged 1,887 hours at sea against a median of 1,254 hours for its type that year. 4.9% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.2%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (4,863 t) and the lowest 2020 (1,356 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 85 in 2019 to 92 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2022 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 3,391 of 3,692 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 92nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.4; this vessel reported 15.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 314,130,491 tonne-miles over 19,877 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 105.0% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2022, emissions rose 258.7% while distance sailed rose 195.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 21.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
