POPLAR ARROW against its type

Built in 2005, it is 2 years older than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 32,461 gross tonnage it is larger than 96% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 146 general cargo ships here under the Bahamas flag, 4.7% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 75 other vessels here, 4 of them general cargo ships. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Nassau as port of registry.

Its 4,871 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.7 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 265.1 kg CO₂, 2.2 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 1,823 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 2.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (6,660 t) and the lowest 2020 (1,444 t). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 26.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 42.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 7 MRV reporting years, 5 of 5 vessel particulars and a licensed photograph. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a name history, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
