GLOVIS SYMPHONY against its type

Built in 2014, it is 6 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 64,546 gross tonnage it is larger than 78% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 43 vehicle carriers here under the South Korea flag, 6.0% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 461 other vessels here, 40 of them vehicle carriers. The reported port of registry changed: MAJURO (2019–2021), then JEJU (2022–2025).

Its 15,704 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.2 times the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 308.9 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 3,320 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 2.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (22,639 t) and the lowest 2020 (3,271 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 45 in 2019 to 46 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
