TAWA ARROW against its type

Built in 2008, it is 1 year newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 30,983 gross tonnage it is larger than 96% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 146 general cargo ships here under the Bahamas flag, 4.7% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 468 other vessels here, 92 of them general cargo ships. The returns for 2019–2025 all give NASSAU as port of registry.

Its 5,415 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.9 times the median of 2,820 t among the 2,469 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 218.5 kg CO₂, 1.8 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,119 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 2.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (5,415 t) and the lowest 2024 (749 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 3 in 2019 to 4 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2022

Position 18 of 406 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 4th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 23.3; this vessel reported 8.5.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 246,335,301 tonne-miles over 6,668 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 11.5% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 622.7% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 12.3%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
