IRENA against its type

Built in 2005, it is 2 years older than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 5,581 gross tonnage it is smaller than 57% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 69 general cargo ships here under the Malta flag, 2.2% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 127 other vessels here, 52 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it JOSEPHINE PRIMA for 2018 and IRENA for 2019–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Madeira (2018), then valletta (2019–2025).

Its 3,052 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to 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 105.0 kg CO₂, 14% below the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 3,032 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 4.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (4,357 t) and the lowest 2019 (2,451 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 50 in 2018 to 65 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 208 of 321 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 65th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 23.6; this vessel reported 29.4.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 65th percentile, EEOI 29.4

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 111,225,434 tonne-miles over 27,185 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 29.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 6.7% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 12.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
