MORNING LAURA against its type

Built in 2010, it is 2 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 70,687 gross tonnage it is larger than 87% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 62 vehicle carriers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 8.7% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 18 of them vehicle carriers. The reported port of registry changed: Panama (2018–2019), then Jeju (2020–2024), then MAJURO (2025).

Its 14,259 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.0 times the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 410.7 kg CO₂, 33% above the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 2,284 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 3.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (24,691 t) and the lowest 2020 (3,232 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 2 in 2018 to 36 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 151 of 423 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 36th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 51.7; this vessel reported 44.5.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 320,065,993 tonne-miles over 34,719 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 24.6% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 80.1% while distance sailed rose 75.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 2.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
