GRIKOS: CO₂ emissions 2018–2025

GRIKOS against its type

Built in 2006, it is 6 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 17,944 gross tonnage it is smaller than 93% 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 95 other vessels here, 64 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it GRIKOS for 2018–2021 and PARALOS for 2022–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Panama (2021), then MONROVIA (2022–2025).

Its 3,969 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 23% above the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 185.0 kg CO₂, 29% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 2,030 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 6.3% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (7,560 t) and the lowest 2020 (1,738 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 85 in 2018 to 67 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 2,162 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 67th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 8.8.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 449,437,146 tonne-miles over 21,454 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 1.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 7.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 10.8%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

• Emissions: EU MRV publication (THETIS-MRV), reporting years 2018–2025, published by the European Commission.
• Vessel particulars: Wikidata (CC0).

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.
