Its 1,591 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 44% below 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 51.4 kg CO₂, 58% below the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,905 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 5.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
