ULTRA COUGAR against its type
Built in 2015, it is 3 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 43,036 gross tonnage it is larger than 70% 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 same builder is recorded for 360 other vessels here, 303 of them bulk carriers. The returns for 2019–2024 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 4,360 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 29% above the median of 3,377 t among the 3,676 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 322.2 kg CO₂, 22% above the type median of 264.0 kg. It logged 1,268 hours at sea against a median of 1,238 hours for its type that year. 2.4% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 2.9%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (7,566 t) and the lowest 2024 (4,360 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 12 in 2019 to 28 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2024 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 809 of 2,858 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 28th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.9; this vessel reported 6.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 685,611,635 tonne-miles over 13,535 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 42.4% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 25.3% while distance sailed fell 36.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 18.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
