GALA against its type
Built in 2005, it is 2 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 9,990 gross tonnage it is larger than 66% 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 returns for 2018–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 4,423 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.6 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 192.9 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 1,796 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 7.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (6,204 t) and the lowest 2019 (2,472 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 85 in 2021 to 87 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 353 of 406 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 87th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 23.3; this vessel reported 45.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 129,397,767 tonne-miles over 31,609 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 11.5% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 28.7% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 7.0%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
