BRAVA LAKE: CO₂ emissions 2018–2020

BRAVA LAKE against its type

Built in 2003, it is 7 years older than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 57,171 gross tonnage it is smaller than 54% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 215 oil tankers here under the Greece flag, 6.1% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 193 of them oil tankers. The returns for 2018–2020 all give Piraeus as port of registry.

Its 9,759 t of CO₂ for 2020 is 12% above the median of 8,732 t among the 1,884 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2020. Per nautical mile it emitted 575.1 kg CO₂, 35% above the type median of 424.6 kg. It logged 1,696 hours at sea against a median of 1,939 hours for its type that year. 14.8% of its 2020 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 8.6%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (16,758 t) and the lowest 2020 (9,759 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 71 in 2018 to 80 in 2020 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2020 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2020

Position 1,369 of 1,708 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 80th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.7; this vessel reported 14.8.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 658,497,976 tonne-miles over 16,968 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2020 was 41.8% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2019 to 2020, emissions fell 27.3% while distance sailed fell 31.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 6.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
