TULIP 18 against its type

Built in 2004, it is 3 years older than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 29,739 gross tonnage it is larger than 95% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 310 general cargo ships here under the Panama flag, 10.1% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 468 other vessels here, 92 of them general cargo ships. Its MRV returns name it V FULMAR for 2018–2019 and TULIP 18 for 2023–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Manila (2018–2019), then Panama (2023–2025).

Its 1,207 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 67% below the median of 3,650 t among the 1,342 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 241.8 kg CO₂, 25% above the type median of 193.7 kg. It logged 565 hours at sea against a median of 1,942 hours for its type that year. 2.2% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.5%.

No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2024, 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2023

Position 46 of 331 qualifying general cargo ships by EEOI, at the 14th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 21.1; this vessel reported 10.4.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 14th percentile, EEOI 10.4

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 116,093,269 tonne-miles over 4,993 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

2019: 465 t20194652023: 1,207 t20231,207

Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 159.6% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.

From 2019 to 2023, emissions rose 159.6% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 1.4%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
