BARRACUDA ISLAND 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 32,540 gross tonnage it is smaller than 63% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 637 bulk carriers here under the Hong Kong flag, 7.8% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 360 other vessels here, 303 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it KING ISLAND for 2018 and BARRACUDA ISLAND for 2019–2024. The reported port of registry changed: Panama (2018–2019), then Hong Kong, China (2020–2024).
Its 3,645 t of CO₂ for 2024 is close to the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 239.7 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 1,451 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 5.3% 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 (8,165 t) and the lowest 2020 (1,509 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 45 in 2018 to 19 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2024 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 555 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 19th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 5.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 643,929,329 tonne-miles over 15,208 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 8.5% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 27.2% while distance sailed rose 49.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 14.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
