KANG HONG against its type

Built in 2005, it is 7 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 30,962 gross tonnage it is smaller than 69% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 137 bulk carriers here under the China flag, 1.7% of the 8,138 on the register. The reported port of registry changed: Hong Kong (2018), then Guangzhou (2019–2025).

Its 5,161 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.6 times the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 254.0 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,808 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 2.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (8,214 t) and the lowest 2019 (938 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 36 in 2018 to 25 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 817 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 25th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 6.0.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 28.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2023 to 2025, emissions rose 137.3% while distance sailed rose 175.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 13.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
