BBC ECHO against its type
Built in 2010, it is 3 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 8,750 gross tonnage it is larger than 61% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 381 general cargo ships here under the Antigua and Barbuda flag, 12.4% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it INDUSTRIAL ECHO for 2018 and BBC ECHO for 2019–2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give SAINT-JOHN'S as port of registry.
Its 5,311 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.9 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 207.5 kg CO₂, 1.7 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 1,978 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 0.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (9,644 t) and the lowest 2019 (594 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 94 in 2018 to 92 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 7 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 374 of 406 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 92nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 23.3; this vessel reported 62.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 46,735,553 tonne-miles over 12,838 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 44.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2025, emissions rose 29.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 0.8%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
