CASSIOPEIA STAR against its type

Built in 2005, it is 2 years older than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 20,283 gross tonnage it is larger than 80% 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. Its MRV returns name it CASSIOPEIA STAR for 2018 and LADY ZEHMA for 2022–2025. The reported port of registry changed: VALLETTA (2018), then Panama (2022–2025).

Its 4,491 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.6 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 218.0 kg CO₂, 1.8 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,113 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 5.3% 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 2018 (6,973 t) and the lowest 2022 (2,541 t). Of the 5 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2018

Position 46 of 380 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 12th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 26.8; this vessel reported 12.9.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 542,188,958 tonne-miles over 21,310 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 35.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 2.7% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 20.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 5 MRV reporting years, an efficiency ranking, 4 of 5 vessel particulars and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
