DELPHI RANGER against its type

Built in 2009, it is 3 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 31,130 gross tonnage it is smaller than 69% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 1,589 bulk carriers here under the Liberia flag, 19.5% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 65 other vessels here, 44 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it DELPHI RANGER for 2018–2023 and MOONRISE for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Nassau (2018–2023), then Monrovia (2025).

Its 4,703 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 45% above the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 286.1 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,529 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 2.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (6,844 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,650 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 35 in 2018 to 68 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 2,198 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 68th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 8.9.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 527,832,772 tonne-miles over 16,440 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 185.1% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, 2022, 2024, so the series has gaps.

From 2023 to 2025, emissions fell 31.3% while distance sailed fell 30.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 1.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 4 MRV reporting years, an efficiency ranking, 5 of 5 vessel particulars and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
