ARCH. RAPHAEL against its type
Built in 2015, it is 3 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 34,553 gross tonnage it is smaller than 52% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 1,603 bulk carriers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 19.7% of the 8,138 on the register. Its MRV returns name it PHOENIX RISING for 2018–2019 and ASTRO REGULUS for 2024–2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 4,144 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 28% above the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 257.4 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,585 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%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (4,285 t) and the lowest 2024 (955 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 61 in 2018 to 36 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,179 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 36th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 6.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 618,437,313 tonne-miles over 16,100 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 80.6% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 333.7% while distance sailed rose 208.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 40.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
