DALIAN STAR against its type
It is one of 1,603 bulk carriers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 19.7% of the 8,138 on the register. Its MRV returns name it MV DALIAN STAR for 2020, DALIAN STAR for 2021–2022 and URSA MAJOR for 2025. The returns for 2020–2025 all give MAJURO as port of registry.
Its 3,202 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 3,238 t among the 3,732 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 320.6 kg CO₂, 23% above the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,063 hours at sea against a median of 1,199 hours for its type that year. 7.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (3,300 t) and the lowest 2021 (1,215 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 20 in 2020 to 89 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 2,899 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 89th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 12.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 257,180,723 tonne-miles over 9,986 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 51.0% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2025, emissions fell 3.0% while distance sailed fell 23.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 27.0%.
