DRAGON against its type
Built in 2012, it is the same age as the median bulk carrier on this register (build year 2012, 6,882 vessels with a known build year). It is one of 218 bulk carriers here under the Bahamas flag, 2.7% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 196 other vessels here, 94 of them bulk carriers. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Nassau as port of registry.
Its 3,850 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 14% above the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 319.4 kg CO₂, 21% above the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 1,106 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 4.6% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (12,581 t) and the lowest 2019 (2,341 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 18 in 2019 to 63 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.
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 1,815 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 63rd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 9.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 427,751,111 tonne-miles over 12,052 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 64.4% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2024, emissions fell 46.8% while distance sailed fell 47.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
