CLIPPER IRIS against its type
Built in 2016, it is 4 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 36,353 gross tonnage it is larger than 56% 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 95 other vessels here, 41 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it CL IRIS for 2019–2021 and CLIPPER IRIS for 2022–2025. The reported port of registry changed: HONG KONG (2019–2021), then Majuro (2022–2025).
Its 2,390 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 26% 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 268.3 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,162 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 7.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (5,698 t) and the lowest 2020 (1,128 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 26 in 2019 to 34 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 5 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 959 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 34th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 6.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 840,430,906 tonne-miles over 19,898 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 58.1% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 57.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 5.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
