BBC TENNESSEE against its type
Built in 2008, it is 1 year newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 9,611 gross tonnage it is larger than 63% 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 BBC TENNESSEE for 2018, COE LUISA for 2019, MV BBC TENNESSEE for 2020–2021, MV COE LUISA for 2023 and COE LUISA for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: St. John's (2018–2023), then SAINT-JOHN'S (2024–2025).
Its 6,228 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.2 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 165.2 kg CO₂, 35% above the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 3,232 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 2.5% 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 2025 (6,228 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,905 t). Of the 5 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 205 of 321 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 64th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 23.6; this vessel reported 28.9.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 164,042,258 tonne-miles over 28,837 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 226.9% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 31.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 0.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
