CIELO DI VIRGIN GORDA 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 25,303 gross tonnage it is smaller than 76% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 157 bulk carriers here under the Portugal flag, 1.9% of the 8,138 on the register. Its MRV returns name it CIELO DI VIRGIN GORDA for 2018–2021, EMILY OLDENDORFF for 2022 and GOLDEN CITRUS for 2023–2025. The reported port of registry changed: MONROVIA (2018–2021), then Madeira (2022–2025).

Its 2,768 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 15% 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 260.2 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,063 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 22.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (12,044 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,288 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 55 in 2019 to 100 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 5 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 115.0% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 77.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 18.8%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
