BULK CHINA against its type
Built in 2005, it is 7 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 88,661 gross tonnage it is larger than 88% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 479 bulk carriers here under the Malta flag, 5.9% of the 8,138 on the register.
Its 4,924 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 26% above the median of 3,908 t among the 3,902 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 450.0 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 288.1 kg. It logged 972 hours at sea against a median of 1,254 hours for its type that year. 2.8% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.2%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (9,582 t) and the lowest 2022 (4,924 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 6 in 2018 to 5 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 comparable vessels listed below with a 2022 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 176 of 3,692 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 5th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.4; this vessel reported 4.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,206,958,333 tonne-miles over 10,943 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 48.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2022, emissions fell 36.1% while distance sailed fell 12.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 26.8%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
