TONGALA against its type

Built in 2012, it is 4 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 61,106 gross tonnage it is larger than 70% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 31 vehicle carriers here under the Malta flag, 4.3% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 38 other vessels here, 17 of them vehicle carriers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Valletta as port of registry.

Its 12,619 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.8 times the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 319.9 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 2,697 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 2.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (17,267 t) and the lowest 2024 (3,878 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 15 in 2018 to 8 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 35 of 423 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 8th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 51.7; this vessel reported 33.1.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 381,705,989 tonne-miles over 39,452 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 26.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 225.4% while distance sailed rose 216.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
