JU XIANG against its type
Built in 2004, it is 8 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 29,407 gross tonnage it is smaller than 72% 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 same builder is recorded for 87 other vessels here, 60 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it RAINBOW for 2019–2022 and JU XIANG for 2024. The returns for 2019–2024 all give Hong Kong as port of registry.
Its 1,337 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 60% below the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 277.4 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 561 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (8,172 t) and the lowest 2024 (1,337 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 27 in 2019 to 50 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2024 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 1,857 of 3,692 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 50th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.4; this vessel reported 8.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 965,951,537 tonne-miles over 26,261 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 73.4% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2024, emissions fell 83.6% 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.
