MGD JOY against its type
Built in 2011, it is 4 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 15,861 gross tonnage it is larger than 74% 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 12 other vessels here, 4 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it SIDER JOY for 2018–2021 and MGD JOY for 2022–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Valletta (2018–2020), then Madeira (2021), then Valletta (2022–2025).
Its 8,039 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.9 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 214.9 kg CO₂, 1.8 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 3,604 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 5.7% 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 2021 (8,769 t) and the lowest 2023 (6,050 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 97 in 2018 to 89 in 2021 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2021
Position 2,902 of 3,276 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 89th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.4; this vessel reported 13.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 657,825,206 tonne-miles over 40,518 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 32.8% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 27.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 1.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
