DSM CAPELLA 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 22,654 gross tonnage it is larger than 85% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 160 general cargo ships here under the Barbados flag, 5.2% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it FEDERAL DANUBE for 2018–2021 and DSM CAPELLA for 2022–2024. The reported port of registry changed: Majuro (2018–2021), then BRIDGETOWN (2022–2024).
Its 7,224 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 1.8 times 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 305.8 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 187.0 kg. It logged 2,338 hours at sea against a median of 2,074 hours for its type that year. 5.5% 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 (10,250 t) and the lowest 2023 (836 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 89 in 2018 to 27 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 88 of 321 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 27th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 23.6; this vessel reported 16.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 439,706,026 tonne-miles over 23,627 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 24.0% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 763.8% while distance sailed rose 452.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 56.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
