SEA LEADER against its type
Built in 2007, it is the same age as the median general cargo ship on this register (build year 2007, 2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 5,197 gross tonnage it is smaller than 60% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 69 general cargo ships here under the Malta flag, 2.2% of the 3,081 on the register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give VALLETTA as port of registry.
Its 2,098 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 26% 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 115.9 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,904 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 6.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (3,524 t) and the lowest 2023 (1,936 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 58 in 2018 to 48 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 232 of 479 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 48th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 29.4; this vessel reported 28.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 72,815,342 tonne-miles over 18,106 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 23.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 18.0% while distance sailed fell 19.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 2.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
