BBC RIO 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 14,859 gross tonnage it is larger than 72% 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 reported port of registry changed: HONG KONG (2019), then PANAMA (2021), then St. John's (2022–2025).

Its 12,895 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 4.6 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 275.6 kg CO₂, 2.3 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 3,773 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 4.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (12,895 t) and the lowest 2019 (2,530 t). 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 type2024

Position 39 of 155 qualifying other ship typess by EEOI, at the 25th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 38.0; this vessel reported 25.2.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 475,106,476 tonne-miles over 46,612 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 409.7% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2023, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 7.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 7.4%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
