FRONTIER WAVE 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 91,424 gross tonnage it is larger than 91% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 23 bulk carriers here under the Japan flag, 0.3% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 90 other vessels here, 68 of them bulk carriers. The returns for 2018–2023 all give TOKYO as port of registry.
Its 4,133 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 22% above the median of 3,386 t among the 3,573 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 402.7 kg CO₂, 48% above the type median of 272.6 kg. It logged 1,206 hours at sea against a median of 1,186 hours for its type that year. 12.4% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.3%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (7,126 t) and the lowest 2023 (4,133 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 2 in 2018 to 8 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 246 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 8th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 4.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 920,456,570 tonne-miles over 10,262 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 30.5% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 42.0% while distance sailed fell 44.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 4.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
