SILHOUETTE ISLAND against its type
Built in 2011, it is 1 year older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 34,914 gross tonnage it is larger than 51% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 637 bulk carriers here under the Hong Kong flag, 7.8% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 79 other vessels here, 77 of them bulk carriers. Its MRV returns name it ULTRA DYNAMIC for 2020–2021 and SILHOUETTE ISLAND for 2022–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Singapore (2020–2021), then Hong Kong, China (2022–2025).
Its 3,234 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 241.5 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,298 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 1.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (6,813 t) and the lowest 2021 (1,469 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 28 in 2020 to 35 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,149 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 35th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 6.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 487,858,220 tonne-miles over 13,393 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 73.4% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 29.0% while distance sailed fell 27.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 2.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
