SWORD LION against its type

Built in 1996, it is 11 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 18,108 gross tonnage it is larger than 75% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 38 general cargo ships here under the Türkiye flag, 1.2% of the 3,081 on the register. The returns for 2024–2025 all give Istanbul as port of registry.

Its 2,191 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 22% 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 174.6 kg CO₂, 43% above the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 1,190 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 1.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year

2024: 2,158 t20242,1582025: 2,191 t20252,191

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 1.6% higher than in 2024, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 1.6% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 21.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
