POLES against its type

Built in 2002, it is 10 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 27,989 gross tonnage it is smaller than 73% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 479 bulk carriers here under the Malta flag, 5.9% of the 8,138 on the register. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Valletta as port of registry.

Its 2,775 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 14% 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 269.2 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 922 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 0.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (5,057 t) and the lowest 2024 (1,714 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 36 in 2019 to 78 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 4.6% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 61.9% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 9.8%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 7 MRV reporting years and 4 of 5 vessel particulars. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a name history, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
