GOLDEN DIAMOND against its type

Built in 2013, it is 1 year newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 41,718 gross tonnage it is larger than 66% 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 4 other vessels here, all of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it GOLDEN DIAMOND for 2018–2023 and PACIFIC STAR for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Majuro (2018), then Majuro, Marshall Islands (2019–2020), then Majuro (2021–2023), then MONROVIA (2024–2025).

Its 5,470 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 1.6 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 327.4 kg CO₂, 24% above the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 1,740 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 2.9% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (11,637 t) and the lowest 2022 (4,592 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 69 in 2018 to 85 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 2,439 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 85th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 12.0.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 85th percentile, EEOI 12.0

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 457,371,238 tonne-miles over 16,710 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 52.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 27.8% while distance sailed fell 29.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 2.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 8 MRV reporting years, an efficiency ranking, 5 of 5 vessel particulars and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: 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.
