ARKLOW ACE against its type
Built in 2020, it is 13 years newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 6,500 gross tonnage it is larger than 52% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 16 general cargo ships here under the Ireland flag, 0.5% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 98 other vessels here, all of them general cargo ships. The returns for 2020–2025 all give Arklow as port of registry.
Its 3,324 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 18% above 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 98.2 kg CO₂, 20% below the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 3,957 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 2.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (4,312 t) and the lowest 2020 (2,276 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 30 in 2021 to 15 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 74 of 479 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 15th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 29.4; this vessel reported 18.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 179,386,940 tonne-miles over 33,864 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 46.1% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 22.9% while distance sailed fell 22.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 0.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
