AQUAVITA SOL against its type

Built in 2020, it is 8 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 43,968 gross tonnage it is larger than 75% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 157 bulk carriers here under the Portugal flag, 1.9% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 118 other vessels here, 105 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it AQUAVITA SOL for 2020–2023 and ARETHUSA for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: PANAMA (2020–2023), then Madeira (2024–2025).

Its 8,555 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.6 times the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 315.9 kg CO₂, 21% above the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 2,635 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 4.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (8,555 t) and the lowest 2021 (1,541 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 8 in 2020 to 25 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 806 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 25th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 5.9.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 25th percentile, EEOI 5.9

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,445,121,622 tonne-miles over 27,085 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 203.2% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 37.3% while distance sailed rose 35.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 6 MRV reporting years, an efficiency ranking, 5 of 5 vessel particulars and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
