BALSA 85 against its type
Built in 2011, it is 1 year older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 5,715 gross tonnage it is smaller than 100% 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. The returns for 2021–2025 all give PANAMA as port of registry.
Its 313 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 90% below the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 106.6 kg CO₂, 59% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 390 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (907 t) and the lowest 2022 (244 t). Of the 3 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 65.5% lower than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2025, emissions rose 28.4% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 13.3%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
