BERLIN TRADER 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 22,863 gross tonnage it is larger than 85% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 51 general cargo ships here under the Singapore flag, 1.7% of the 3,081 on the register. Columbia Shipmanagement is linked to 42 vessels on this register. Its MRV returns name it BERLIN TRADER for 2018–2019, CHIPOL YONG AN for 2020–2024 and GM YONGAN for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Monrovia (2018–2024), then Singapore (2025).
Its 770 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 73% 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 377.0 kg CO₂, 3.1 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 244 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 1.6% 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 2024 (9,742 t) and the lowest 2025 (770 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 23 in 2018 to 30 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 5 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 100 of 331 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 30th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 21.1; this vessel reported 15.1.
Across the 41 ranked vessels operated by Columbia Shipmanagement, the median percentile is 53. This vessel is more efficient than its own fleet median.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 137,750,993 tonne-miles over 8,909 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 88.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 92.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 61.3%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
