FRIENDSHIP against its type
Built in 2009, it is 3 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 89,603 gross tonnage it is larger than 89% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 1,589 bulk carriers here under the Liberia flag, 19.5% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 90 other vessels here, 68 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it OCEAN CLARION for 2020 and FRIENDSHIP for 2023–2025. The reported port of registry changed: PANAMA (2020), then MONROVIA (2023–2025).
Its 3,784 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 12% above the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 381.3 kg CO₂, 44% above the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 915 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 0.8% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (11,907 t) and the lowest 2024 (3,784 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 4 in 2020 to 7 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 192 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 7th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 4.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 880,016,279 tonne-miles over 9,924 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 68.2% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 45.0% while distance sailed fell 35.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 15.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
