EXPLORER ASIA against its type
Built in 2016, it is 4 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 43,968 gross tonnage it is larger than 75% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 637 bulk carriers here under the Hong Kong flag, 7.8% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 118 other vessels here, 105 of them bulk carriers. The returns for 2022–2024 all give HONG KONG as port of registry.
Its 7,793 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 2.3 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 320.7 kg CO₂, 21% above the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 2,103 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 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (7,793 t) and the lowest 2023 (1,915 t).

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 191.8% higher than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 307.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 2.0%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
