AFRICAN TEAL against its type
Built in 2015, it is 3 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 24,064 gross tonnage it is smaller than 79% 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 same builder is recorded for 19 other vessels here, 5 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it LA PARTENAIS for 2018–2021 and AFRICAN TEAL for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Malta (2018), then Valletta (2019–2021), then Nassau (2024–2025).
Its 3,022 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 211.2 kg CO₂, 19% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,345 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 6.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (7,970 t) and the lowest 2024 (1,788 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 56 in 2018 to 42 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,381 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 42nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 7.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 425,683,099 tonne-miles over 14,310 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 53.0% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 69.0% while distance sailed rose 86.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 9.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
