HERITAGE LEADER against its type

Built in 2011, it is 3 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 58,767 gross tonnage it is smaller than 51% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 73 vehicle carriers here under the Bahamas flag, 10.2% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 983 other vessels here, 41 of them vehicle carriers. Nippon Yusen is linked to 11 vessels on this register. The returns for 2018–2024 all give Nassau as port of registry.

Its 4,793 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 43% below the median of 8,474 t among the 465 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 313.5 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 320.4 kg. It logged 1,092 hours at sea against a median of 1,799 hours for its type that year. 2.9% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 2.2%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (12,189 t) and the lowest 2021 (3,034 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 99 in 2018 to 10 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 31 of 289 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 10th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 52.1; this vessel reported 37.1.

Across the 9 ranked vessels operated by Nippon Yusen, the median percentile is 40. This vessel is more efficient than its own fleet median.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 129,014,805 tonne-miles over 15,289 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 60.7% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 47.5% while distance sailed fell 33.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 21.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
