ACHILLES BULKER against its type
Built in 2003, it is 9 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 19,891 gross tonnage it is smaller than 91% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 1,601 bulk carriers here under the Panama flag, 19.7% of the 8,138 on the register. Its MRV returns name it ACHILLES BULKER for 2018 and NAB BULKER for 2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give PANAMA as port of registry.
Its 3,067 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 213.3 kg CO₂, 18% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 2,558 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 2.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 67 in 2018 to 62 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 2,020 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 62nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 8.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 362,109,799 tonne-miles over 14,376 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 44.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2018 to 2025, emissions fell 44.3% while distance sailed fell 37.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 11.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
