VIRGINIABORG against its type
Built in 2001, it is 6 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 6,361 gross tonnage it is larger than 51% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 306 general cargo ships here under the Netherlands flag, 9.9% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 52 other vessels here, 36 of them general cargo ships. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Delfzijl as port of registry.
Its 6,277 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.2 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 125.7 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 4,822 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 3.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (7,469 t) and the lowest 2024 (5,920 t). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 8.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 6.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 0.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
