SPAR URSA 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 32,839 gross tonnage it is smaller than 61% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 75 bulk carriers here under the Norway flag, 0.9% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 139 other vessels here, 125 of them bulk carriers. Fleet Management Limited is linked to 40 vessels on this register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Bergen as port of registry.
Its 4,860 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 44% above the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 329.0 kg CO₂, 25% above the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 1,572 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 7.3% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (8,983 t) and the lowest 2023 (1,472 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 29 in 2018 to 45 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 1,294 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 45th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 7.6.
Across the 24 ranked vessels operated by Fleet Management Limited, the median percentile is 38. This vessel is less efficient than its own fleet median.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 641,110,818 tonne-miles over 14,771 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 21.5% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 230.2% while distance sailed rose 139.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 38.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
