ORION against its type
Built in 2012, it is 5 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 29,892 gross tonnage it is larger than 95% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 112 general cargo ships here under the Norway flag, 3.6% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 468 other vessels here, 92 of them general cargo ships. The returns for 2021–2025 all give Bergen as port of registry.
Its 6,170 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.2 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 244.3 kg CO₂, 2.0 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,292 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 4.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (6,170 t) and the lowest 2024 (353 t). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2021
Position 1,342 of 3,276 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 41st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.4; this vessel reported 7.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 780,236,129 tonne-miles over 22,915 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 2.0% higher than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 1,647.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 13.8%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
