ALMA DEL MAR against its type
Built in 2011, it is 4 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 22,064 gross tonnage it is larger than 84% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 216 general cargo ships here under the Liberia flag, 7.0% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it VANTAGE WAVE for 2018–2019 and ALMA DEL MAR for 2022–2023. The reported port of registry changed: Monrovia (2018–2022), then La Paz (2023).
Its 862 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 76% below the median of 3,650 t among the 1,342 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 201.9 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 193.7 kg. It logged 383 hours at sea against a median of 1,942 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.5%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (2,020 t) and the lowest 2018 (639 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 23 in 2018 to 7 in 2019 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2023 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2019
Position 29 of 381 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 7th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 28.8; this vessel reported 11.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 168,854,237 tonne-miles over 6,257 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 34.8% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 57.4% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 38.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
