TOPAZ against its type
Built in 2004, it is 8 years older than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 38,845 gross tonnage it is larger than 59% 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 2018–2021 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 2,327 t of CO₂ for 2021 is 41% below the median of 3,945 t among the 3,342 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2021. Per nautical mile it emitted 87.0 kg CO₂, 70% below the type median of 291.9 kg. It logged 2,100 hours at sea against a median of 1,190 hours for its type that year. 5.5% of its 2021 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.8%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (5,603 t) and the lowest 2021 (2,327 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 76 in 2018 to 0 in 2021 (lower is more efficient). The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2021 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2021
Position 6 of 3,276 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 0th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.4; this vessel reported 1.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,410,406,061 tonne-miles over 26,746 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2021 was 58.5% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, so the series has gaps.
From 2019 to 2021, emissions fell 50.7% while distance sailed rose 105.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 76.0%.
