KOTA BUNGA against its type

Built in 2012, it is 5 years newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 20,886 gross tonnage it is larger than 80% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 310 general cargo ships here under the Panama flag, 10.1% of the 3,081 on the register. Its MRV returns name it KOTA BUNGA for 2020 and SIMAG BEIJING for 2021–2024. The reported port of registry changed: Singapore (2020), then Panama (2021–2024).

Its 2,296 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 43% below the median of 4,046 t among the 1,395 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 223.2 kg CO₂, 19% above the type median of 187.0 kg. It logged 925 hours at sea against a median of 2,074 hours for its type that year. 1.3% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 3.9%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (16,301 t) and the lowest 2021 (430 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 97 in 2020 to 35 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 113 of 321 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 35th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 23.6; this vessel reported 19.8.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 35th percentile, EEOI 19.8

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 116,264,810 tonne-miles over 10,286 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 85.9% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 50.0% while distance sailed fell 47.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 5.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
