ES MERCURY against its type

Built in 2008, it is 1 year newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 20,236 gross tonnage it is larger than 79% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 310 general cargo ships here under the Panama flag, 10.1% of the 3,081 on the register. The returns for 2020–2021 all give Panama as port of registry.

Its 2,533 t of CO₂ for 2021 is 41% below the median of 4,268 t among the 1,316 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2021. Per nautical mile it emitted 216.6 kg CO₂, 15% above the type median of 189.1 kg. It logged 1,058 hours at sea against a median of 2,017 hours for its type that year. 2.1% of its 2021 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 3.9%. Its efficiency percentile within the type was 3 in both 2020 and 2021. The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2021 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 306,296,252 tonne-miles over 11,694 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

2020: 6,470 t20206,4702021: 2,533 t20212,533

Reported CO₂ in 2021 was 60.8% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2020 to 2021, emissions fell 60.8% while distance sailed fell 62.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 4.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
