BISON against its type

Built in 2013, it is 1 year newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 43,022 gross tonnage it is larger than 69% 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 360 other vessels here, 303 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it RICH FUTURE for 2018 and BISON for 2023–2024. The reported port of registry changed: PANAMA (2018), then Monrovia (2023–2024).

Its 1,825 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 46% 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 295.8 kg CO₂, 12% above the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 733 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 6.2% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (4,895 t) and the lowest 2023 (888 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 5 in 2018 to 47 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2024 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 1,345 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 47th 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 237,348,505 tonne-miles over 6,171 nautical miles.

2018: 4,895 t20184,8952023: 888 t20232024: 1,825 t20241,825

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 62.7% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 105.6% while distance sailed rose 77.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 16.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
