BERN STAR against its type
Built in 2012, it is the same age as the median bulk carrier on this register (build year 2012, 6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 41,963 gross tonnage it is larger than 67% 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 same builder is recorded for 102 other vessels here, 45 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it CORAL CRYSTAL for 2020–2021, BLUE CRYSTAL for 2023–2024 and BERN STAR for 2025. The returns for 2020–2025 all give PANAMA as port of registry.
Its 1,551 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 54% below the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 297.7 kg CO₂, 13% above the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 458 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (5,277 t) and the lowest 2024 (1,551 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 76 in 2020 to 37 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2024 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
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 type2024
Position 1,072 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 37th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 7.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 220,063,830 tonne-miles over 5,211 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 59.5% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 48.0% while distance sailed fell 46.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 3.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
