MANDARIN NOBLE: CO₂ emissions 2018–2025

MANDARIN NOBLE 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 33,044 gross tonnage it is smaller than 57% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 428 bulk carriers here under the Singapore flag, 5.3% of the 8,138 on the register. The reported port of registry changed: Singapore (2018), then Monrovia (2019–2023), then Singapore (2024–2025).

Its 467 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 86% below the median of 3,238 t among the 3,732 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 383.9 kg CO₂, 47% above the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 101 hours at sea against a median of 1,199 hours for its type that year. 28.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (4,248 t) and the lowest 2025 (467 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 39 in 2018 to 55 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 1,581 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 55th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 8.3.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 511,150,421 tonne-miles over 14,248 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 88.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 89.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 28.8%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
