VIOLET ACE against its type
Built in 2011, it is 3 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 49,708 gross tonnage it is smaller than 74% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 73 vehicle carriers here under the Bahamas flag, 10.2% of the 713 on the register. The returns for 2018–2024 all give Nassau as port of registry.
Its 8,313 t of CO₂ for 2024 is close to the median of 8,474 t among the 465 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 326.8 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 320.4 kg. It logged 1,841 hours at sea against a median of 1,799 hours for its type that year. 2.9% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 2.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (19,827 t) and the lowest 2018 (5,456 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 91 in 2018 to 94 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 273 of 289 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 94th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 52.1; this vessel reported 125.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 66,166,998 tonne-miles over 25,440 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 52.4% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 58.1% while distance sailed fell 54.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 8.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
