CL BELLE against its type
Built in 2014, it is 2 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 34,803 gross tonnage it is smaller than 50% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 1,603 bulk carriers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 19.7% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 114 other vessels here, 76 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it CL BELLE for 2019–2021 and CLIPPER BELLE for 2023–2024. The reported port of registry changed: Hong Kong (2019–2021), then Majuro (2023–2024).
Its 2,121 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 37% below the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 241.6 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 822 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 5.8% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (10,091 t) and the lowest 2024 (2,121 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 48 in 2019 to 19 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2024 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 537 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 19th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 5.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 378,010,695 tonne-miles over 8,776 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 37.3% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 59.7% while distance sailed fell 51.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 16.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
