BISCAYNE LIGHT against its type
Built in 1997, it is 15 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 14,747 gross tonnage it is smaller than 97% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 17 bulk carriers here under the San Marino flag, 0.2% of the 8,138 on the register. Its MRV returns name it BISCAYNE LIGHT for 2018–2021 and MOHAMAD M for 2022–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Hong Kong (2018–2021), then AVATIU (2022–2023), then San Marino (2024–2025).
Its 208 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 94% below the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 112.8 kg CO₂, 57% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 229 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 4.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (4,983 t) and the lowest 2025 (208 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 81 in 2018 to 95 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 93.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 88.6% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 41.8%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
