SOUTH RIVER against its type
Built in 1998, it is 9 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 14,118 gross tonnage it is larger than 72% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 310 general cargo ships here under the Panama flag, 10.1% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it SOUTH RIVER for 2018–2022 and UMS-ARCTURUS for 2023–2024. The reported port of registry changed: Napoli (2018–2022), then PANAMA (2023–2024).
Its 4,521 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 12% above the median of 4,046 t among the 1,395 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 185.0 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 187.0 kg. It logged 2,032 hours at sea against a median of 2,074 hours for its type that year. 4.3% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 3.9%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (8,259 t) and the lowest 2023 (2,645 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 28 in 2018 to 20 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 comparable vessels listed below with a 2024 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 64 of 321 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 20th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 23.6; this vessel reported 13.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 330,453,947 tonne-miles over 24,432 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 42.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 70.9% while distance sailed rose 130.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 26.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
