TAO BRAVE 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 15,243 gross tonnage it is smaller than 97% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 1,601 bulk carriers here under the Panama flag, 19.7% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 17 other vessels here, 9 of them bulk carriers. The returns for 2024–2025 all give Panama as port of registry.
Its 4,040 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 25% 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 190.6 kg CO₂, 27% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 2,276 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 4.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. 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 3,048 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 94th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 14.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 272,248,652 tonne-miles over 21,195 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 170.7% higher than in 2024, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 170.7% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 6.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
