CORINTHIAN SPIRE against its type
Built in 2009, it is 2 years newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). It is one of 146 general cargo ships here under the Bahamas flag, 4.7% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 96 other vessels here, 38 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it CRANE ISLAND for 2018 and CORINTHIAN SPIRE for 2019–2025. The reported port of registry changed: PANAMA (2018), then Nassau (2019–2025).
Its 5,210 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.8 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 207.3 kg CO₂, 1.7 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,531 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 3.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (6,246 t) and the lowest 2021 (669 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 50 in 2018 to 10 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 33 of 331 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 10th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 21.1; this vessel reported 9.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 306,448,017 tonne-miles over 14,002 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 175.3% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 24.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 6.2%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
