5009 TANJA RICKMERS against its type
Built in 2009, it is 1 year newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 40,542 gross tonnage it is smaller than 54% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 119 container ships here under the Marshall Islands flag, 3.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 211 other vessels here, 61 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it TANJA RICKMERS for 2018, 5009 TANJA RICKMERS for 2019 and TANJA for 2021–2024. The returns for 2018–2024 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 29,630 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 1.7 times the median of 17,769 t among the 2,101 container ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 670.2 kg CO₂, 27% above the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 3,099 hours at sea against a median of 3,325 hours for its type that year. 0.9% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 2.8%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (47,153 t) and the lowest 2018 (5,169 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 57 in 2018 to 62 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 1,031 of 1,661 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 62nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.4; this vessel reported 18.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,578,567,928 tonne-miles over 44,212 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 473.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2024, emissions rose 57.0% while distance sailed rose 30.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 20.6%.
