BOW GALLANT against its type
Built in 2008, it is 5 years older than the median gas carrier on this register, which was built in 2013 (530 vessels with a known build year). At 9,126 gross tonnage it is smaller than 79% of the other 525 gas carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 59 gas carriers here under the Malta flag, 8.6% of the 688 on the register. Its MRV returns name it BOW GALLANT for 2018–2020 and BWEK ANHOLT for 2022–2023. The returns for 2018–2023 all give Valletta as port of registry.
Its 3,696 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 35% below the median of 5,702 t among the 338 gas carriers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 295.9 kg CO₂, 13% above the type median of 262.3 kg. It logged 1,018 hours at sea against a median of 1,868 hours for its type that year. 19.3% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for gas carriers was 4.5%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (14,372 t) and the lowest 2023 (3,696 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 80 in 2018 to 97 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 288 of 297 qualifying gas carriers by EEOI, at the 97th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 38.5; this vessel reported 138.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 26,763,956 tonne-miles over 12,491 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 74.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 65.6% while distance sailed fell 70.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 17.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
