ELENA 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). At 16,042 gross tonnage it is smaller than 97% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 157 bulk carriers here under the Portugal flag, 1.9% of the 8,138 on the register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Madeira as port of registry.

Its 5,081 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.6 times the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 251.1 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 2,303 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 5.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (10,351 t) and the lowest 2025 (5,081 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type was 98 in both 2018 and 2025. Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 3,181 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 98th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 19.8.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 49.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 22.6% while distance sailed fell 25.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
