ORCA ACE against its type

Built in 2018, it is 10 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 63,116 gross tonnage it is larger than 77% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 177 vehicle carriers here under the Panama flag, 24.8% of the 713 on the register. The returns for 2018–2023 all give PANAMA as port of registry.

Its 4,290 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 45% below the median of 7,792 t among the 460 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 289.9 kg CO₂, 11% below the type median of 326.4 kg. It logged 883 hours at sea against a median of 1,623 hours for its type that year. 0.5% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.6%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (5,564 t) and the lowest 2018 (2,478 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 75 in 2018 to 73 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2023 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 73.1% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, so the series has gaps.

From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 6.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 2.1%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 4 MRV reporting years and 4 of 5 vessel particulars. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a name history, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
