HAPPY SKY against its type
Built in 2013, it is 6 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 15,989 gross tonnage it is larger than 74% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. 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 3 other vessels here. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Amsterdam as port of registry.
Its 12,250 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 4.3 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 331.2 kg CO₂, 2.7 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,772 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 11.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (15,262 t) and the lowest 2024 (6,732 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 99 in 2018 to 100 in 2019 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 7 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2019
Position 379 of 381 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 100th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 28.8; this vessel reported 255.9.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 40,589,254 tonne-miles over 36,738 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 7.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 82.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 11.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
