AFRICAN FOREST against its type

Built in 2011, it is 4 years newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 20,973 gross tonnage it is larger than 81% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 187 general cargo ships here under the Portugal flag, 6.1% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it AFRICAN FOREST for 2019–2021 and PACIFIC HONOUR for 2022–2023. The returns for 2019–2023 all give Madeira as port of registry.

Its 2,680 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 27% below the median of 3,650 t among the 1,342 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 249.7 kg CO₂, 29% above the type median of 193.7 kg. It logged 926 hours at sea against a median of 1,942 hours for its type that year. 2.7% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.5%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (13,290 t) and the lowest 2023 (2,680 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 23 in 2019 to 20 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 comparable vessels listed below with a 2023 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
