AURORA against its type

Built in 1991, it is 3 years older than the median refrigerated cargo carrier on this register, which was built in 1994 (183 vessels with a known build year). At 5,084 gross tonnage it is smaller than 93% of the other 178 refrigerated cargo carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is the only refrigerated cargo carrier on this register under the Faroe Islands flag. Its MRV returns name it SCOMBRUS for 2018–2019 and AURORA for 2020–2022. The reported port of registry changed: Torshavn (2018–2019), then Klaipeda (2020), then Torshavn (2021–2022).

Its 1,565 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 68% below the median of 4,959 t among the 141 refrigerated cargo carriers on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 127.2 kg CO₂, 50% below the type median of 253.1 kg. It logged 1,037 hours at sea against a median of 1,677 hours for its type that year. 4.5% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for refrigerated cargo carriers was 4.6%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (3,431 t) and the lowest 2022 (1,565 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 40 in 2019 to 66 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2022 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2022

Position 93 of 140 qualifying refrigerated cargo carriers by EEOI, at the 66th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 55.0; this vessel reported 64.8.

Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 28.5% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2021 to 2022, emissions fell 37.7% while distance sailed fell 44.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 11.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
