GREAT SPIRIT against its type

Built in 2019, it is 7 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 34,508 gross tonnage it is smaller than 53% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 637 bulk carriers here under the Hong Kong flag, 7.8% of the 8,138 on the register. The returns for 2020–2023 all give Hong Kong as port of registry.

Its 5,067 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 50% 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 252.7 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 272.6 kg. It logged 1,926 hours at sea against a median of 1,186 hours for its type that year. 3.8% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.3%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (5,067 t) and the lowest 2021 (695 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 24 in 2020 to 31 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2023 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2023

Position 1,005 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 31st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 6.6.

Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 52.8% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2022 to 2023, emissions rose 66.8% while distance sailed rose 78.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 6.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
