BC VANESSA 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 19,805 gross tonnage it is larger than 77% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 160 general cargo ships here under the Barbados flag, 5.2% of the 3,081 on the register. The returns for 2020–2025 all give Bridgetown as port of registry.
Its 1,927 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 32% 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 210.0 kg CO₂, 1.7 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 798 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 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (5,667 t) and the lowest 2024 (1,805 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 84 in 2021 to 3 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 17 of 479 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 3rd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 29.4; this vessel reported 9.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 199,679,793 tonne-miles over 9,174 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 66.0% lower than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 6.8% while distance sailed rose 15.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 7.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
