NIGHTWING against its type
Built in 2006, it is 6 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 84,448 gross tonnage it is larger than 87% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 218 bulk carriers here under the Bahamas flag, 2.7% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 87 other vessels here, 60 of them bulk carriers. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Nassau as port of registry.
Its 9,676 t of CO₂ for 2020 is 2.4 times the median of 3,952 t among the 3,048 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2020. Per nautical mile it emitted 476.6 kg CO₂, 1.7 times the type median of 277.5 kg. It logged 1,810 hours at sea against a median of 1,298 hours for its type that year. 1.3% of its 2020 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.8%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 13 in 2019 to 2 in 2020 (lower is more efficient).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2024, 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2020
Position 67 of 2,985 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 2nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.1; this vessel reported 3.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 2,780,316,092 tonne-miles over 20,300 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2020 was 122.9% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2019 to 2020, emissions rose 122.9% while distance sailed rose 142.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 8.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
