CASTILLO DE MALPICA against its type
Built in 2015, it is 3 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 66,687 gross tonnage it is larger than 87% 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. The returns for 2021–2025 all give Valletta as port of registry.
Its 5,212 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.6 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 347.3 kg CO₂, 33% above the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,294 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 2.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (5,993 t) and the lowest 2023 (3,215 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 18 in 2018 to 14 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 459 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 14th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 5.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,021,901,961 tonne-miles over 15,006 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 26.9% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2025, emissions rose 62.1% while distance sailed rose 77.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 8.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
