DS MANATEE: CO₂ emissions 2018–2025

DS MANATEE against its type

Built in 2002, it is 10 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 17,944 gross tonnage it is smaller than 93% 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 returns for 2018–2025 all give MAJURO as port of registry.

Its 2,384 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 181.4 kg CO₂, 30% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,671 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 2.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (7,400 t) and the lowest 2024 (1,172 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 99 in 2018 to 74 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 2,383 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 74th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 9.5.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 250,644,585 tonne-miles over 13,142 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 67.8% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2021, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 103.4% while distance sailed rose 89.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 7.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
