SOMERSET against its type
Built in 1978, it is 34 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 13,491 gross tonnage it is smaller than 98% 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 returns for 2018–2019 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 7,518 t of CO₂ for 2019 is 1.8 times the median of 4,211 t among the 3,264 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2019. Per nautical mile it emitted 216.7 kg CO₂, 25% below the type median of 290.4 kg. It logged 4,862 hours at sea against a median of 1,454 hours for its type that year. 6.0% of its 2019 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.9%.

Efficiency against its own type2019
Position 3,057 of 3,161 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 97th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.1; this vessel reported 18.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 403,104,558 tonne-miles over 34,693 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2019 was 891.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2018 to 2019, emissions rose 891.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
