ARKLOW BAY against its type

Built in 2014, it is 7 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 5,065 gross tonnage it is smaller than 62% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 306 general cargo ships here under the Netherlands flag, 9.9% 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 2018–2025 all give Rotterdam as port of registry.

Its 4,766 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.7 times 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 109.8 kg CO₂, 10% below the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 4,170 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 4.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (5,399 t) and the lowest 2024 (4,287 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 34 in 2018 to 35 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 5 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 168 of 479 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 35th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 29.4; this vessel reported 24.9.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 35th percentile, EEOI 24.9

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 191,348,856 tonne-miles over 43,407 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 10.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 11.2% while distance sailed rose 10.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 0.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 8 MRV reporting years, an efficiency ranking, 5 of 5 vessel particulars and AIS movements in Norwegian waters. Not found in the sources for this vessel: a name history, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
