BARCELONA EXPRESS against its type

Built in 2014, it is 6 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 41,286 gross tonnage it is smaller than 53% 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 74 other vessels here, 49 of them container ships. Anglo-Eastern Ship Management is linked to 133 vessels on this register. The reported port of registry changed: Hong Kong (2018–2023), then Monrovia (2024–2025).

Its 30,613 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.9 times the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 432.6 kg CO₂, 21% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 5,855 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 3.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (30,613 t) and the lowest 2022 (17,073 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type was 58 in both 2018 and 2025. Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 1,074 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 58th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 16.6.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 58th percentile, EEOI 16.6

Across the 102 ranked vessels operated by Anglo-Eastern Ship Management, the median percentile is 55. This vessel is less efficient than its own fleet median.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,847,517,803 tonne-miles over 70,760 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 8.5% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 13.6% while distance sailed rose 3.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 9.7%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
