AFRICAN WOODSTAR against its type
It is one of 218 bulk carriers here under the Bahamas flag, 2.7% of the 8,138 on the register. Its MRV returns name it LA FRESNAIS for 2018–2020 and AFRICAN WOODSTAR for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Hong Kong (2018–2020), then Nassau (2025).
Its 1,955 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 40% below the median of 3,238 t among the 3,732 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 230.6 kg CO₂, 12% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 820 hours at sea against a median of 1,199 hours for its type that year. 16.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (10,228 t) and the lowest 2025 (1,955 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 67 in 2018 to 83 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 2,698 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 83rd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 11.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 178,060,109 tonne-miles over 8,479 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 43.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2025, emissions fell 70.4% while distance sailed fell 69.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 1.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
