FAROUK M against its type

Built in 2000, it is 12 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 26,084 gross tonnage it is smaller than 74% 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 102 other vessels here, 45 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it SOLAR for 2018–2023 and FAROUK M for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Majuro (2018–2023), then Bridgetown (2024–2025).

Its 1,009 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 70% below the median of 3,386 t among the 3,573 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 270.7 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 272.6 kg. It logged 690 hours at sea against a median of 1,186 hours for its type that year. 4.4% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.3%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (1,234 t) and the lowest 2022 (748 t). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2023 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2024, 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Reported CO₂ by year

2018: 1,234 t20181,2342020: 1,171 t20202022: 748 t20222023: 1,009 t20231,009

Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 18.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2021, so the series has gaps.

From 2022 to 2023, emissions rose 34.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 48.7%.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, 5 of 5 vessel particulars and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, AIS movements in Norwegian waters, 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.
