FWN MERCHANT against its type
It is one of 306 general cargo ships here under the Netherlands flag, 9.9% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it FWN MERCHANT for 2019–2022 and INDUSTRIAL MERCHANT for 2023–2025. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Groningen as port of registry.
Its 1,537 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 62% below 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 128.2 kg CO₂, 31% below the type median of 187.0 kg. It logged 995 hours at sea against a median of 2,074 hours for its type that year. 2.2% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 3.9%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (7,032 t) and the lowest 2021 (1,370 t).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2021
Position 208 of 326 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 64th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 22.6; this vessel reported 26.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 52,688,462 tonne-miles over 8,360 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 69.5% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2022 to 2024, emissions fell 1.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 21.1%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
