BASIC PRINCESS against its type

Built in 2012, it is 5 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 23,264 gross tonnage it is larger than 88% 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. The same builder is recorded for 323 other vessels here, 25 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it BASIC PRINCESS for 2018–2023 and DRINA S for 2024–2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give PANAMA as port of registry.

Its 5,670 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.0 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 189.8 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,307 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 4.3% 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 2020 (6,041 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,666 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 94 in 2018 to 68 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2023

Position 2,214 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 68th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 9.6.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 525,655,892 tonne-miles over 18,083 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 240.4% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2022, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 15.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 0.4%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 6 MRV reporting years, an efficiency ranking, 5 of 5 vessel particulars, AIS movements in Norwegian waters and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: 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.
