It is one of 306 general cargo ships here under the Netherlands flag, 9.9% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 1 other vessel here. The returns for 2018–2023 all give Amsterdam as port of registry.
Its 5,681 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 1.6 times the median of 3,650 t among the 1,342 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 347.8 kg CO₂, 1.8 times the type median of 193.7 kg. It logged 2,195 hours at sea against a median of 1,942 hours for its type that year. 14.0% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.5%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (19,814 t) and the lowest 2019 (3,742 t).

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 71.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 52.4% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 27.2%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
