AK MILANA against its type
Built in 2002, it is 10 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 19,885 gross tonnage it is smaller than 91% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 22 bulk carriers here under the Sierra Leone flag, 0.3% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 96 other vessels here, 50 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it CRUX for 2018, VERA for 2023, SIENA for 2024 and AK MILANA for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: MONROVIA (2018), then Majuro (2023–2024), then Freetown (2025).
Its 6,503 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.0 times the median of 3,238 t among the 3,732 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 192.6 kg CO₂, 26% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 4,026 hours at sea against a median of 1,199 hours for its type that year. 3.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (6,503 t) and the lowest 2023 (3,019 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 54 in 2018 to 85 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 2,752 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 85th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 11.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 571,975,374 tonne-miles over 33,763 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 72.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 96.9% while distance sailed rose 74.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 13.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
