HANDY HEIDI against its type
Built in 2011, it is 4 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 21,192 gross tonnage it is larger than 82% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 310 general cargo ships here under the Panama flag, 10.1% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it SAKURA KOBE for 2018, HANDY HEIDI for 2023–2024 and RIGHT COURSE for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: PANAMA (2018), then Majuro (2023–2024), then Panama (2025).
Its 7,613 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.7 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 200.6 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 3,337 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 3.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (7,613 t) and the lowest 2024 (7 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 54 in 2018 to 4 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 20 of 479 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 4th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 29.4; this vessel reported 10.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 762,805,611 tonne-miles over 37,948 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 178.6% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 112,682.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 46.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
