RONG MAY against its type
Built in 2017, it is 5 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 46,990 gross tonnage it is larger than 82% 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 468 other vessels here, 362 of them bulk carriers. The returns for 2018–2023 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 11,593 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 3.4 times the median of 3,386 t among the 3,573 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 314.8 kg CO₂, 15% above the type median of 272.6 kg. It logged 5,410 hours at sea against a median of 1,186 hours for its type that year. 8.6% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 4.3%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (11,593 t) and the lowest 2022 (385 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 48 in 2018 to 70 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 2,301 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 70th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 9.9.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,170,972,727 tonne-miles over 36,829 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 123.5% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions rose 2,911.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 54.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
