GRAND DOLPHIN against its type

Built in 2004, it is 4 years older than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 59,217 gross tonnage it is larger than 54% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 177 vehicle carriers here under the Panama flag, 24.8% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 102 other vessels here, 50 of them vehicle carriers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Panama as port of registry.

Its 1,074 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 85% below the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 255.5 kg CO₂, 17% below the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 296 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 3.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (13,704 t) and the lowest 2025 (1,074 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 69 in 2018 to 72 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 91.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2024, so the series has gaps.

From 2023 to 2025, emissions fell 83.6% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 35.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
