BELNIPPON against its type

Built in 2018, it is 6 years newer 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 75 bulk carriers here under the Norway flag, 0.9% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 59 other vessels here, 57 of them bulk carriers. The reported port of registry changed: PANAMA (2019–2021), then Egersund (2023–2025).

Its 6,644 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.1 times the median of 3,238 t among the 3,732 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 232.9 kg CO₂, 11% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 2,568 hours at sea against a median of 1,199 hours for its type that year. 3.3% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (6,644 t) and the lowest 2019 (2,166 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 4 in 2019 to 25 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 821 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 25th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 6.0.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,114,845,638 tonne-miles over 28,533 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 206.8% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2024, so the series has gaps.

From 2023 to 2025, emissions rose 0.4% while distance sailed rose 6.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 5.7%.
