KSL SEATTLE against its type
Built in 2014, it is 2 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 94,528 gross tonnage it is larger than 96% 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 194 other vessels here, 124 of them bulk carriers. The returns for 2018–2024 all give Hong Kong as port of registry.
Its 5,055 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 50% 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 448.9 kg CO₂, 1.7 times the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 1,116 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 5.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (17,500 t) and the lowest 2022 (541 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 24 in 2018 to 18 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2024 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 520 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 18th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 5.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 910,895,496 tonne-miles over 11,263 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 71.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2024, emissions rose 835.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 11.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
