BBC NORWAY 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 18,189 gross tonnage it is larger than 76% 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. The same builder is recorded for 146 other vessels here, 12 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it KOTA BAYU for 2020 and BBC NORWAY for 2022–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Singapore (2020), then St. Johns (2022–2025).
Its 2,357 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 16% below 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 273.6 kg CO₂, 2.2 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 709 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 7.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (6,358 t) and the lowest 2025 (2,357 t). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2020
Position 10 of 11 qualifying combination carriers by EEOI, at the 90th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 24.4; this vessel reported 51.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 73,400,695 tonne-miles over 14,970 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 38.0% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2025, emissions fell 46.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 11.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
