VEZHEN against its type
Built in 2022, it is 10 years newer than the median bulk carrier on this register, which was built in 2012 (6,882 vessels with a known build year). At 20,848 gross tonnage it is smaller than 89% of the other 6,571 bulk carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 479 bulk carriers here under the Malta flag, 5.9% of the 8,138 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 211 other vessels here, 129 of them bulk carriers. The returns for 2022–2025 all give Valletta as port of registry.
Its 3,059 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 3,239 t among the 3,731 bulk carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 151.9 kg CO₂, 42% below the type median of 260.7 kg. It logged 2,078 hours at sea against a median of 1,200 hours for its type that year. 3.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for bulk carriers was 3.7%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (3,059 t) and the lowest 2022 (124 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 70 in 2024 to 97 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 3,138 of 3,241 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 97th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 17.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 174,926,815 tonne-miles over 20,136 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 2,364.5% higher than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 8.4% while distance sailed rose 0.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 8.1%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
