TIAN QI against its type

Built in 2016, it is 9 years newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 26,770 gross tonnage it is larger than 93% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 38 general cargo ships here under the China flag, 1.2% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 37 other vessels here, one of them a general cargo ship. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Guangzhou as port of registry.

Its 10,196 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 3.6 times 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 253.8 kg CO₂, 2.1 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 3,402 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 3.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (13,589 t) and the lowest 2021 (677 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 14 in 2018 to 6 in 2019 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 25.0% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 144.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 0.4%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
