ARKLOW BREEZE against its type

Built in 2015, it is 8 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 3,521 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 25% 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 110.8 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 3,098 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 2.8% 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 2019 (5,390 t) and the lowest 2025 (3,521 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 17 in 2018 to 28 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 7 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 136 of 479 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 28th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 29.4; this vessel reported 23.5.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 149,573,067 tonne-miles over 31,763 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 25.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 18.9% while distance sailed fell 13.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 6.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
