EASTERN LIGHT against its type
Built in 2006, it is 1 year older than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 30,570 gross tonnage it is larger than 95% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 216 general cargo ships here under the Liberia flag, 7.0% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 83 other vessels here, 7 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it EASTERN LIGHT for 2018 and VICTORIA for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Egersund (2018), then Monrovia (2024–2025).
Its 7,308 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.6 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 270.5 kg CO₂, 2.2 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,742 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 4.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (7,308 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,865 t). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 291.9% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 80.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 31.1%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
