AARGAU against its type
Built in 2010, it is 2 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 20,809 gross tonnage it is smaller than 89% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 16 bulk carriers here under the Switzerland flag, 0.2% of the 8,138 on the register. Its MRV returns name it AARGAU for 2018 and ARGO I for 2020–2023. The returns for 2020–2023 all give Panama as port of registry.
Its 3,811 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 13% above the median of 3,386 t among the 3,573 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 281.7 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 272.6 kg. It logged 1,350 hours at sea against a median of 1,186 hours for its type that year. 1.6% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.3%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (3,811 t) and the lowest 2020 (1,534 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 64 in 2018 to 91 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2023 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 2,984 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 91st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 14.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 261,045,890 tonne-miles over 13,530 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 111.0% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2023, emissions rose 35.8% while distance sailed rose 16.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 16.3%.
