OCEAN FREEDOM 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 31,532 gross tonnage it is smaller than 67% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 1,589 bulk carriers here under the Liberia flag, 19.5% 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 2018–2023 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 4,085 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 21% above the median of 3,386 t among the 3,573 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 338.8 kg CO₂, 24% above the type median of 272.6 kg. It logged 1,039 hours at sea against a median of 1,186 hours for its type that year. 9.4% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.3%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (6,522 t) and the lowest 2021 (1,990 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 20 in 2018 to 71 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 2,328 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 71st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 10.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 409,686,058 tonne-miles over 12,056 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 69.6% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2023, emissions rose 105.2% while distance sailed rose 66.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 23.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
