PING AN SONG 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 20,684 gross tonnage it is larger than 80% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 38 general cargo ships here under the China flag, 1.2% of the 3,081 on the register. The reported port of registry changed: Guangzhou (2018–2024), then XIAMEN (2025).
Its 2,849 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 22% below the median of 3,650 t among the 1,342 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 285.3 kg CO₂, 47% above the type median of 193.7 kg. It logged 929 hours at sea against a median of 1,942 hours for its type that year. 2.6% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.5%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (2,849 t) and the lowest 2022 (484 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 6 in 2018 to 31 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2023 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2024, 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 104 of 331 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 31st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 21.1; this vessel reported 15.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 184,420,065 tonne-miles over 9,987 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 8.9% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions rose 488.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 32.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
