GOLAR BEAR against its type

Built in 2014, it is the same age as the median LNG carrier on this register (build year 2014, 396 vessels with a known build year). At 102,100 gross tonnage it is smaller than 69% of the other 377 LNG carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 111 LNG carriers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 20.6% of the 538 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 563 other vessels here, 82 of them LNG carriers. Its MRV returns name it GOLAR BEAR for 2020–2022 and KOOL HUSKY for 2023. The returns for 2020–2023 all give Majuro as port of registry.

Its 6,092 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 73% below the median of 22,978 t among the 367 LNG carriers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 824.9 kg CO₂, 27% above the type median of 650.5 kg. It logged 611 hours at sea against a median of 2,547 hours for its type that year. 0.6% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for LNG carriers was 2.1%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (48,333 t) and the lowest 2023 (6,092 t). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2023 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 58.8% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 87.4% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 25.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
