LILA CHENNAI against its type
Built in 2012, it is the same age as the median bulk carrier on this register (build year 2012, 6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 34,531 gross tonnage it is smaller than 53% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 1,589 bulk carriers here under the Liberia flag, 19.5% of the 8,138 on the register. Its MRV returns name it WP BRAVE for 2018–2021 and LILA CHENNAI for 2022–2023. The reported port of registry changed: Majuro (2018–2021), then Monrovia (2022).
Its 2,346 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 31% below the median of 3,386 t among the 3,573 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 245.2 kg CO₂, 10% below the type median of 272.6 kg. It logged 818 hours at sea against a median of 1,186 hours for its type that year. 3.4% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.3%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (3,947 t) and the lowest 2018 (725 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 54 in 2020 to 82 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2023 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 2,690 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 82nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 11.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 199,500,850 tonne-miles over 9,567 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 223.5% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 27.2% while distance sailed fell 4.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 23.8%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
