GEORGE against its type
Built in 1999, it is 8 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 7,918 gross tonnage it is larger than 59% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 160 general cargo ships here under the Barbados flag, 5.2% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 14 other vessels here, 10 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it GEORGE for 2018–2020 and SEAWAY K for 2021–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Panama (2018–2021), then Bridgetown (2023–2025).
Its 2,668 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to 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 188.0 kg CO₂, 1.5 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 1,553 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 12.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (5,706 t) and the lowest 2023 (690 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 27 in 2018 to 39 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 188 of 479 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 39th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 29.4; this vessel reported 26.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 102,142,802 tonne-miles over 14,189 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 51.0% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 47.8% while distance sailed rose 40.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 5.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
