SARONIC SPIRIT 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 24,991 gross tonnage it is smaller than 76% 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. Its MRV returns name it XING RONG HAI for 2018–2019, VENTURE TEAM for 2021–2022 and SARONIC SPIRIT for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Hong Kong (2018–2019), then Majuro (2021–2025).
Its 2,445 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 25% 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 203.8 kg CO₂, 22% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,114 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 3.3% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (3,885 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,237 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 65 in 2018 to 40 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,288 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 40th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 6.9.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 354,342,029 tonne-miles over 11,999 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 97.7% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2025, emissions fell 17.8% while distance sailed fell 3.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 14.5%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
