DORADO PLUS against its type
Built in 2007, it is the same age as the median general cargo ship on this register (build year 2007, 2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 5,684 gross tonnage it is smaller than 55% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 20 general cargo ships here under the Sierra Leone flag, 0.6% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 5 other vessels here, 3 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it DORADO PLUS for 2018–2024 and LAKER 2 for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Valetta (2018–2023), then Monrovia (2024), then Freetown (2025).
Its 1,409 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 50% 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 130.5 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,221 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 8.3% 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 2021 (3,890 t) and the lowest 2025 (1,409 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 68 in 2018 to 62 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 298 of 479 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 62nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 29.4; this vessel reported 33.2.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 42,381,053 tonne-miles over 10,797 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 60.8% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 17.0% while distance sailed fell 12.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 5.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
