SOUTH SPIRIT 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 18,459 gross tonnage it is larger than 76% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 216 general cargo ships here under the Liberia flag, 7.0% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 307 other vessels here, 26 of them general cargo ships. The returns for 2024–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.

Its 3,593 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 27% above 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 180.9 kg CO₂, 48% above the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 1,950 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 3.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year

2024: 3,883 t20243,8832025: 3,593 t20253,593

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 7.5% lower than in 2024, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 7.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 0.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
