ALMA against its type
Built in 2002, it is 10 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). It is one of 127 bulk carriers here under the Barbados flag, 1.6% of the 8,138 on the register. Its MRV returns name it ALMA for 2018–2023 and HMZ ISLAND for 2024. The reported port of registry changed: Valletta (2018–2023), then BRIDGETOWN (2024).
Its 7,404 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 2.2 times the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 146.1 kg CO₂, 45% below the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 2,831 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 4.3% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (9,595 t) and the lowest 2022 (2,598 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 85 in 2018 to 91 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 2,601 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 91st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 13.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 534,936,416 tonne-miles over 50,671 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 45.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 8.9% while distance sailed rose 91.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 43.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
