BETULA ARROW against its type

Built in 2014, it is 7 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 35,503 gross tonnage it is larger than 97% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 310 general cargo ships here under the Panama flag, 10.1% of the 3,081 on the register. The returns for 2021–2023 all give PANAMA as port of registry.

Its 5,496 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.9 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 199.1 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,535 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 3.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (5,496 t) and the lowest 2023 (2,722 t). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 91.4% higher than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2024, so the series has gaps.

From 2023 to 2025, emissions rose 101.9% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 17.3%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
