BLUE SAPPHIRE 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 23,703 gross tonnage it is smaller than 80% 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 returns for 2020–2025 all give PANAMA as port of registry.
Its 1,754 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 46% 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 241.9 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 613 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (6,765 t) and the lowest 2025 (1,754 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 47 in 2020 to 93 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 5 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 3,027 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 93rd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 14.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 121,625,520 tonne-miles over 7,251 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 58.2% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 74.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
