BELNOR against its type
Built in 2010, it is 2 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 32,837 gross tonnage it is smaller than 62% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 1,589 bulk carriers here under the Liberia flag, 19.5% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 139 other vessels here, 125 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it BELNOR for 2018–2019 and PYTHIAS for 2021–2024. The reported port of registry changed: Egersund (2019–2021), then Monrovia (2023–2024).
Its 3,765 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 11% above the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 282.1 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 1,414 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 1.7% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (3,765 t) and the lowest 2021 (1,740 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 88 in 2018 to 46 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 1,325 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 46th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 7.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 492,171,242 tonne-miles over 13,345 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 21.7% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 37.3% while distance sailed rose 52.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 9.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
