BERGE MERU against its type
Built in 2020, it is 8 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 109,716 gross tonnage it is larger than 99% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 52 bulk carriers here under the Isle of Man flag, 0.6% of the 8,138 on the register. The returns for 2021–2025 all give Douglas as port of registry.
Its 5,203 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 33% above the median of 3,908 t among the 3,902 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 397.9 kg CO₂, 38% above the type median of 288.1 kg. It logged 1,190 hours at sea against a median of 1,254 hours for its type that year. 2.0% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.2%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 3 in 2021 to 5 in 2022 (lower is more efficient).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 171 of 3,692 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 5th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.4; this vessel reported 4.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,281,438,424 tonne-miles over 13,074 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 4.4% higher than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2022, emissions rose 4.4% while distance sailed rose 37.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 23.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
