DSM NORWICH against its type
Built in 2004, it is 8 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 19,887 gross tonnage it is smaller than 91% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 127 bulk carriers here under the Barbados flag, 1.6% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 96 other vessels here, 50 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it SUN RUBY for 2020 and DSM NORWICH for 2024. The reported port of registry changed: Hong Kong, China (2020), then Bridgetown (2024).
Its 5,103 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 1.5 times the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 213.3 kg CO₂, 19% below the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 2,535 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 3.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 69 in 2020 to 89 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2024 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 2,538 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 89th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 13.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 390,700,613 tonne-miles over 23,926 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 76.9% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2024, emissions rose 76.9% while distance sailed rose 90.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 6.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
