MS ATLANTIC against its type

Built in 2010, it is 3 years newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 22,064 gross tonnage it is larger than 84% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 181 general cargo ships here under the Marshall Islands flag, 5.9% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it MS ATLANTIC for 2018 and NODUS for 2020–2022. The reported port of registry changed: MAJURO (2018), then MONROVIA (2020–2022).

Its 3,249 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 16% below the median of 3,889 t among the 1,306 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 289.0 kg CO₂, 49% above the type median of 193.6 kg. It logged 995 hours at sea against a median of 1,979 hours for its type that year. 7.7% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (5,236 t) and the lowest 2018 (2,223 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 8 in 2018 to 20 in 2022 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2022

Position 83 of 406 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 20th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 23.3; this vessel reported 14.8.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 219,251,012 tonne-miles over 11,243 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 46.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, so the series has gaps.

From 2021 to 2022, emissions fell 37.9% while distance sailed fell 34.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 5.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.

Where the 2022 emissions occurred

Laden voyages2022

CO₂ on laden voyages: 2,191 t, 67% of total
Fuel, laden: 695 t
CO₂ per nm, laden: 264.7 kg

The rest of the 2022 total was emitted on ballast legs or at berth.
