ELARA against its type
Built in 2010, it is 3 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 216 general cargo ships here under the Liberia flag, 7.0% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 95 other vessels here, 17 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it NORDIC SVALBARD for 2018–2019, UHL PASSION for 2020–2021 and ELARA for 2024–2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 2,026 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 28% 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 270.5 kg CO₂, 2.2 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 770 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 3.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (10,245 t) and the lowest 2025 (2,026 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 88 in 2019 to 96 in 2020 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 29.7% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2025, emissions fell 47.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 7.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
