VELVET against its type
Built in 2021, it is 14 years newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). It is one of 181 general cargo ships here under the Marshall Islands flag, 5.9% of the 3,081 on the register. The returns for 2022–2025 all give MAJURO as port of registry.
Its 4,912 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.7 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 186.2 kg CO₂, 1.5 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 2,307 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 2.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (4,912 t) and the lowest 2022 (2,014 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 80 in 2022 to 27 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 7 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 868 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 27th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 6.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 412,969,697 tonne-miles over 13,510 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 143.9% higher than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 33.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 0.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
