AFRICAN OWL against its type
Built in 2016, it is 9 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 21,521 gross tonnage it is larger than 83% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 146 general cargo ships here under the Bahamas flag, 4.7% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 90 other vessels here, 8 of them general cargo ships. The returns for 2022–2024 all give Nassau as port of registry.
Its 3,584 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 11% 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 197.1 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 187.0 kg. It logged 1,808 hours at sea against a median of 2,074 hours for its type that year. 5.3% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 3.9%.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 45.6% higher than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2024, emissions rose 45.6% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 10.0%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
