CHL APOLLO against its type
Built in 2004, it is 3 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 7,002 gross tonnage it is larger than 54% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 181 general cargo ships here under the Marshall Islands flag, 5.9% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it THUNDER BIRD for 2018–2023 and CHL APOLLO for 2024. The reported port of registry changed: Korsor (2018–2022), then Korsør (2023), then MAJURO (2024).
Its 3,345 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 17% below the median of 4,046 t among the 1,395 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 192.2 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 187.0 kg. It logged 1,733 hours at sea against a median of 2,074 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 3.9%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (7,398 t) and the lowest 2019 (1,273 t).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 304 of 321 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 95th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 23.6; this vessel reported 80.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 41,806,174 tonne-miles over 17,406 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 30.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 90.6% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.2%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
