MBA LIBERTY against its type

Built in 2010, it is 2 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 43,024 gross tonnage it is larger than 70% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 10 bulk carriers here under the Italy flag, 0.1% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 360 other vessels here, 303 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it MBA LIBERTY for 2018 and OASEA for 2023. The reported port of registry changed: Napoli (2018), then Majuro (2023).

Its 3,270 t of CO₂ for 2023 is close to the median of 3,386 t among the 3,573 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 302.5 kg CO₂, 11% above the type median of 272.6 kg. It logged 1,152 hours at sea against a median of 1,186 hours for its type that year. 4.2% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.3%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 28 in 2018 to 57 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2023 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2023

Position 1,869 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 57th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 8.5.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 383,382,180 tonne-miles over 10,811 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

2018: 4,558 t20184,5582023: 3,270 t20233,270

Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 28.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.

From 2018 to 2023, emissions fell 28.3% while distance sailed fell 39.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 19.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
