LIMA STRAIT 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). It is one of 1,589 bulk carriers here under the Liberia flag, 19.5% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 983 other vessels here, 103 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it OCEAN OPAL for 2018–2020 and LIMA STRAIT for 2022. The reported port of registry changed: Manila (2018), then Monrovia (2020–2022).
Its 7,772 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 2.0 times the median of 3,908 t among the 3,902 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 273.1 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 288.1 kg. It logged 3,347 hours at sea against a median of 1,254 hours for its type that year. 4.7% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.2%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 89 in 2020 to 72 in 2022 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 2,650 of 3,692 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 72nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.4; this vessel reported 10.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 733,940,510 tonne-miles over 28,462 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 271.0% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2022, emissions rose 271.0% while distance sailed rose 279.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 2.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
