DUNEDIN STAR against its type

Built in 1994, it is the same age as the median refrigerated cargo carrier on this register (build year 1994, 183 vessels with a known build year). At 8,665 gross tonnage it is smaller than 62% of the other 178 refrigerated cargo carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 96 refrigerated cargo carriers here under the Bahamas flag, 47.5% of the 202 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 28 other vessels here, 4 of them refrigerated cargo carriers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Nassau as port of registry.

Its 4,126 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 21% below the median of 5,190 t among the 111 refrigerated cargo carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 252.3 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.9 kg. It logged 1,095 hours at sea against a median of 1,731 hours for its type that year. 4.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for refrigerated cargo carriers was 3.8%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (6,257 t) and the lowest 2023 (2,666 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 92 in 2018 to 94 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 89 of 95 qualifying refrigerated cargo carriers by EEOI, at the 94th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 55.3; this vessel reported 96.9.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 42,591,763 tonne-miles over 16,357 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 31.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 20.4% while distance sailed fell 13.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 8.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
