EASTERN CONFIDENCE against its type

Built in 2008, it is 4 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 17,018 gross tonnage it is smaller than 95% 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 323 other vessels here, 238 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it EASTERN CONFIDENCE for 2018–2019 and TRUE HARMONY for 2020–2024. The reported port of registry changed: Manila (2018–2019), then BRIDGETOWN (2020–2024).

Its 998 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 70% below the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 166.9 kg CO₂, 37% below the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 595 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (5,605 t) and the lowest 2021 (504 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 57 in 2018 to 97 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023

Position 3,152 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 97th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 19.7.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 82,150,178 tonne-miles over 6,599 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 42.4% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 38.4% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 32.0%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 6 MRV reporting years, an efficiency ranking, 5 of 5 vessel particulars, AIS movements in Norwegian waters and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
