AEGEAN SPIRE 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 21,211 gross tonnage it is larger than 82% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 310 general cargo ships here under the Panama flag, 10.1% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it AEGEAN SPIRE for 2019–2024 and V CETUS for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Nassau (2019–2024), then Panama (2025).
Its 2,419 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 14% below 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 216.9 kg CO₂, 1.8 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 1,088 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 2.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (6,095 t) and the lowest 2023 (2,127 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 72 in 2019 to 91 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 5 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 2,974 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 91st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 14.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 147,390,159 tonne-miles over 8,737 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 56.9% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 47.9% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 12.0%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
