MERCURIUS 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 23,456 gross tonnage it is smaller than 81% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 1,603 bulk carriers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 19.7% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 180 other vessels here, 74 of them bulk carriers. The returns for 2020–2025 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 4,362 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 35% above the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 224.3 kg CO₂, 14% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,760 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 5.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (7,287 t) and the lowest 2020 (2,717 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 92 in 2018 to 88 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 2,836 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 88th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 11.9.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 366,888,982 tonne-miles over 19,448 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 23.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 36.5% while distance sailed fell 25.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 14.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
