HONGXIN OCEAN 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 20,218 gross tonnage it is smaller than 90% 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 2019–2025 all give Hong Kong, China as port of registry.
Its 4,628 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 37% above the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 263.0 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 2,141 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 3.7% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 73 in 2019 to 78 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2024 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.
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 2,222 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 78th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 10.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 434,134,146 tonne-miles over 17,598 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 13.5% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2019 to 2024, emissions rose 13.5% while distance sailed rose 7.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 5.9%.
