MIA against its type
Built in 2011, it is 1 year older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 24,020 gross tonnage it is smaller than 79% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 17 bulk carriers here under the San Marino flag, 0.2% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 69 other vessels here, 8 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it TURQUOISE OCEAN for 2018, TBC PRIME for 2022–2024 and MIA for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: MONROVIA (2018), then PANAMA (2022–2024), then San Marino (2025).
Its 2,887 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 11% below the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 219.2 kg CO₂, 16% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,209 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 7.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (7,465 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,248 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 81 in 2018 to 58 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,880 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 58th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 8.2.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 352,454,212 tonne-miles over 13,168 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 131.4% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 41.2% while distance sailed fell 38.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
