ISTANBUL-M against its type
Built in 2010, it is 2 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 23,456 gross tonnage it is smaller than 81% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 1,601 bulk carriers here under the Panama flag, 19.7% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 180 other vessels here, 74 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it MANZANILLO for 2020–2023 and ISTANBUL-M for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Majuro (2020–2023), then Panama (2024–2025).
Its 2,063 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 36% below the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 212.4 kg CO₂, 19% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 883 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 5.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (7,022 t) and the lowest 2023 (983 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 88 in 2020 to 81 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 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 2,622 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 81st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 10.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 194,834,750 tonne-miles over 9,716 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 46.8% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 58.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 15.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
