GRAIG CARDIFF against its type
Built in 2012, it is 5 years newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 24,187 gross tonnage it is larger than 91% 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. Its MRV returns name it GRAIG CARDIFF for 2018, NORDIC BC MUNICH for 2019–2023 and TRANSNORDIC for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Cardiff (2018), then Monrovia (2019–2025).
Its 8,410 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 3.0 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 276.5 kg CO₂, 2.3 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 3,657 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 3.1% 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 2020 (9,937 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,042 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 80 in 2019 to 4 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 19 of 479 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 4th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 29.4; this vessel reported 9.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 859,950,920 tonne-miles over 30,415 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 707.3% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 148.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 5.3%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
