BLUE FIN against its type

Built in 2011, it is 1 year older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). It is one of 479 bulk carriers here under the Malta flag, 5.9% of the 8,138 on the register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Valletta as port of registry.

Its 7,396 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.3 times the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 287.8 kg CO₂, 10% above the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 3,277 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 5.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (7,396 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,076 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 72 in 2018 to 84 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 2,718 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 84th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 11.2.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 663,339,910 tonne-miles over 25,703 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 587.4% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2021, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 52.5% while distance sailed rose 64.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 7.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
