ARA AMSTERDAM against its type

Built in 2010, it is 2 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 11,550 gross tonnage it is smaller than 87% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 307 container ships here under the Portugal flag, 8.8% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 44 other vessels here, 23 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it PHILEMON for 2018–2019, ARA AMSTERDAM for 2020–2023 and KILIA for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Saint John's (2018), then Madeira (2020–2025).

Its 11,303 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 31% below the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 283.1 kg CO₂, 48% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 5,027 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 6.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (23,206 t) and the lowest 2025 (11,303 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type was 90 in both 2018 and 2025. Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 1,659 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 90th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 37.7.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 90th percentile, EEOI 37.7

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 299,986,465 tonne-miles over 39,929 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 50.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 16.5% while distance sailed fell 13.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 3.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
