DENSA LION against its type
It is one of 479 bulk carriers here under the Malta flag, 5.9% of the 8,138 on the register. The returns for 2024–2025 all give Valletta as port of registry.
Its 2,636 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 19% 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 276.6 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 884 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 10.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (10,732 t) and the lowest 2024 (2,317 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 32 in 2021 to 57 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,842 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 57th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 8.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 325,039,458 tonne-miles over 9,531 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 20.0% lower than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 13.8% while distance sailed rose 12.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
