MORGENSTOND I against its type
Built in 2006, it is 1 year older than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 8,999 gross tonnage it is larger than 62% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 160 general cargo ships here under the Barbados flag, 5.2% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 16 other vessels here, 12 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it MORGENSTOND I for 2018–2021 and MORNING TIDE for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Delfzijl (2018–2021), then BRIDGETOWN (2024–2025).
Its 9,888 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 3.5 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 177.8 kg CO₂, 46% above the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 4,764 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 0.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (9,888 t) and the lowest 2021 (2,027 t). The one sister ship listed below with a 2025 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 418 of 479 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 87th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 29.4; this vessel reported 53.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 184,718,476 tonne-miles over 55,597 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 32.7% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 306.7% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 7.2%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
