AL ZAHRAA against its type

Built in 2002, it is 5 years older than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 19,746 gross tonnage it is larger than 77% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 67 general cargo ships here under the Saint Kitts and Nevis flag, 2.2% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it UBC SAIKI for 2020, SALVADOR for 2021–2023 and AL ZAHRAA for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Limassol (2020–2023), then Basseterre (2024–2025).

Its 1,916 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 53% 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 230.3 kg CO₂, 23% above the type median of 187.0 kg. It logged 804 hours at sea against a median of 2,074 hours for its type that year. 9.6% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 3.9%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (5,371 t) and the lowest 2020 (761 t).

No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 151.9% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 64.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 5.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
