MERWEBORG against its type
Built in 1997, it is 10 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 6,540 gross tonnage it is larger than 52% 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 5 other vessels here, all of them general cargo ships. Wagenborg is linked to 11 vessels on this register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Delfzijl as port of registry.
Its 5,005 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.8 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 144.3 kg CO₂, 18% above the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 3,777 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 5.1% 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 2020 (8,416 t) and the lowest 2025 (5,005 t). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 29.7% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 25.7% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
