LADY KHADIJA: CO₂ emissions 2018–2025

LADY KHADIJA against its type

Built in 1996, it is 11 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 5,602 gross tonnage it is smaller than 57% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 20 general cargo ships here under the Sierra Leone flag, 0.6% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 5 other vessels here, 3 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it ZILLERTAL for 2018, MANISA M for 2019–2021 and LADY KHADIJA for 2022–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Delfzijl (2018), then Avatiu (2019–2023), then FREE TOWN (2024), then FREETOWN (2025).

Its 1,629 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 42% below 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 142.7 kg CO₂, 17% above the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 1,312 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 8.4% 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 (8,336 t) and the lowest 2025 (1,629 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 83 in 2018 to 67 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 215 of 321 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 67th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 23.6; this vessel reported 30.2.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 97,470,549 tonne-miles over 20,836 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 80.5% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 44.7% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 0.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
