ALEXANDER BAY 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 39,941 gross tonnage it is smaller than 56% 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 563 other vessels here, 243 of them container ships. The returns for 2020–2023 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 6,815 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 53% 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 491.6 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 509.2 kg. It logged 1,608 hours at sea against a median of 2,716 hours for its type that year. 7.5% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 4.0%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 52 in 2020 to 44 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 740 of 1,664 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 44th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 17.4; this vessel reported 15.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 444,264,016 tonne-miles over 13,864 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 29.5% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2023, emissions fell 29.5% while distance sailed fell 20.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 11.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
