APL CHARLESTON against its type
Built in 2013, it is 5 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 109,712 gross tonnage it is larger than 81% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 362 container ships here under the Singapore flag, 10.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 660 other vessels here, 231 of them container ships. The returns for 2018–2021 all give Singapore as port of registry.
Its 4,785 t of CO₂ for 2021 is 71% below the median of 16,246 t among the 1,825 container ships on this register that reported for 2021. Per nautical mile it emitted 787.5 kg CO₂, 40% above the type median of 562.2 kg. It logged 580 hours at sea against a median of 2,808 hours for its type that year. 0.1% of its 2021 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.9%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (20,499 t) and the lowest 2020 (4,711 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 32 in 2018 to 15 in 2020 (lower is more efficient).

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2021 was 76.7% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2021, emissions rose 1.6% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 19.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
