0139 HSL SHEFFIELD against its type
Built in 2003, it is 5 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 26,833 gross tonnage it is smaller than 68% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 976 container ships here under the Liberia flag, 27.9% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 355 of them container ships. Zeaborn Ship Management is linked to 56 vessels on this register. Its MRV returns name it HSL SHEFFIELD for 2018, 0139 HSL SHEFFIELD for 2019–2020, SHEFFIELD for 2022 and MSC SHEFFIELD III for 2023. The returns for 2018–2023 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 9,835 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 33% below the median of 14,627 t among the 1,920 container ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 477.1 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 509.2 kg. It logged 1,277 hours at sea against a median of 2,716 hours for its type that year. 8.3% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 4.0%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (37,546 t) and the lowest 2022 (3,069 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 75 in 2018 to 84 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 1,396 of 1,664 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 84th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 17.4; this vessel reported 36.2.
Across the 43 ranked vessels operated by Zeaborn Ship Management, the median percentile is 45. This vessel is less efficient than its own fleet median.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 271,603,977 tonne-miles over 20,613 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 73.7% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions rose 220.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.3%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
