STAMFORD PIONEER against its type
Built in 2012, it is the same age as the median bulk carrier on this register (build year 2012, 6,882 vessels with a known build year). 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 11 other vessels here, 9 of them bulk carriers. The returns for 2022–2025 all give Hong Kong as port of registry.
Its 4,821 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 49% above the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 278.5 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 1,642 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 9.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (5,906 t) and the lowest 2024 (1,008 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 84 in 2018 to 97 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 3,134 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 97th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 17.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 281,756,283 tonne-miles over 17,311 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 18.4% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 378.3% while distance sailed rose 324.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 12.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
