MEGARA against its type
Built in 2018, it is 4 years newer than the median LNG carrier on this register, which was built in 2014 (396 vessels with a known build year). At 113,263 gross tonnage it is larger than 54% of the other 377 LNG carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 63 LNG carriers here under the Bahamas flag, 11.7% of the 538 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 660 other vessels here, 109 of them LNG carriers. The reported port of registry changed: Nassau (2018–2022), then Nassau, Bahamas (2023–2024).
Its 21,017 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 34% above the median of 15,704 t among the 348 LNG carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 489.5 kg CO₂, 11% below the type median of 552.7 kg. It logged 2,662 hours at sea against a median of 2,215 hours for its type that year. 2.4% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for LNG carriers was 1.6%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (21,017 t) and the lowest 2019 (2,605 t).

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 429.6% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 19.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 19.8%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
