STAR PAOLA 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). 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 STAR PAOLA for 2018–2021 and STAR TEMBU for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Valletta (2018), then Monrovia (2020–2021), then Majuro (2025).
Its 1,951 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 40% below the median of 3,238 t among the 3,732 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 491.8 kg CO₂, 1.9 times the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 416 hours at sea against a median of 1,199 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (7,743 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,081 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 0 in 2020 to 8 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 273 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 8th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 4.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 431,586,283 tonne-miles over 3,967 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 80.5% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2022, 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2025, emissions fell 74.8% while distance sailed fell 76.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 6.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
