MEGA STAR against its type
Built in 1981, it is 31 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 8,208 gross tonnage it is smaller than 99% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 37 bulk carriers here under the Türkiye flag, 0.5% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 95 other vessels here, 64 of them bulk carriers.
Its 363 t of CO₂ for 2019 is 91% below the median of 4,211 t among the 3,264 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2019. Per nautical mile it emitted 146.1 kg CO₂, 50% below the type median of 290.4 kg. It logged 648 hours at sea against a median of 1,454 hours for its type that year. 4.7% of its 2019 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.9%. The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2019 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2019 was 47.3% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2018 to 2019, emissions rose 47.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 15.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
