PLAINPALAIS against its type
Built in 2015, it is 3 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 43,037 gross tonnage it is larger than 70% 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 136 other vessels here, 89 of them bulk carriers. The reported port of registry changed: Panama (2019), then SINGAPORE (2020–2022), then Majuro (2023–2025).
Its 6,478 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.0 times the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 287.5 kg CO₂, 10% above the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 2,058 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 2.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (14,881 t) and the lowest 2024 (2,481 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 15 in 2019 to 9 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 297 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 9th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 4.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,399,231,102 tonne-miles over 22,532 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 56.5% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 161.2% while distance sailed rose 158.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
