GREEN COVE against its type
Built in 1999, it is 9 years older than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 57,566 gross tonnage it is smaller than 62% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 23 vehicle carriers here under the United States flag, 3.2% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 307 other vessels here, 55 of them vehicle carriers. The reported port of registry changed: Mobile, AL (2018–2021), then Mobile (2022).
Its 5,085 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 39% below the median of 8,301 t among the 462 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 376.0 kg CO₂, 12% above the type median of 336.8 kg. It logged 925 hours at sea against a median of 1,694 hours for its type that year. 3.1% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 4.0%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (15,402 t) and the lowest 2022 (5,085 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 71 in 2018 to 47 in 2022 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 195 of 416 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 47th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 54.7; this vessel reported 53.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 94,656,366 tonne-miles over 13,523 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 11.4% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2022, emissions fell 8.9% while distance sailed fell 21.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 16.7%.
