ARIES: CO₂ emissions 2018–2021

ARIES against its type

Built in 2001, it is 7 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 25,361 gross tonnage it is smaller than 72% 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 61 other vessels here, 49 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it JPO ARIES for 2018–2020 and ARIES for 2021. The returns for 2018–2021 all give Madeira as port of registry.

Its 6,590 t of CO₂ for 2021 is 59% 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 424.1 kg CO₂, 25% below the type median of 562.2 kg. It logged 1,230 hours at sea against a median of 2,808 hours for its type that year. 2.0% of its 2021 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.9%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (25,323 t) and the lowest 2021 (6,590 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 67 in 2018 to 58 in 2021 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2021 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2021

Position 897 of 1,557 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 58th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 16.2; this vessel reported 18.6.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 353,365,684 tonne-miles over 15,538 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2021 was 36.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2020 to 2021, emissions fell 40.7% while distance sailed fell 46.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 10.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
