ARCTIC SPIRIT against its type
Built in 1991, it is 3 years older than the median refrigerated cargo carrier on this register, which was built in 1994 (183 vessels with a known build year). At 6,419 gross tonnage it is smaller than 84% of the other 178 refrigerated cargo carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 7 refrigerated cargo carriers here under the Russia flag, 3.5% of the 202 on the register. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Saint Petersburg as port of registry.
Its 3,332 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 29% below the median of 4,662 t among the 117 refrigerated cargo carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 312.8 kg CO₂, 22% above the type median of 256.2 kg. It logged 2,939 hours at sea against a median of 1,649 hours for its type that year. 5.9% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for refrigerated cargo carriers was 4.0%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (9,135 t) and the lowest 2024 (3,332 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 87 in 2019 to 100 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 95 of 95 qualifying refrigerated cargo carriers by EEOI, at the 100th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 56.1; this vessel reported 184.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 18,029,108 tonne-miles over 10,654 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 63.5% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 52.3% while distance sailed fell 44.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 14.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
