Ammonia - Well-to-Wake by pathway

Grey (SMR), blue (SMR + CCS), green (electrolytic). Zero tank-to-wake CO₂; WtW depends on upstream hydrogen source and captures the N₂O penalty from combustion.

Method
TTW CO₂ (t) = mass × Cf
Energy (MJ) = mass (kg) × LCV (MJ/kg)
WtW (t CO₂e) = Energy (MJ) × WtW factor (g/MJ) / 1e6

WtW factors include upstream extraction, processing, transport, plus tank-to-wake combustion and relevant CH₄/N₂O. FuelEU Maritime Annex II publishes the authoritative defaults.
