BFP MELODY against its type
Built in 1998, it is 10 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 10,457 gross tonnage it is smaller than 88% 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 33 other vessels here, 3 of them container ships. The returns for 2018–2019 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 11,438 t of CO₂ for 2019 is 39% below the median of 18,616 t among the 1,830 container ships on this register that reported for 2019. Per nautical mile it emitted 226.0 kg CO₂, 58% below the type median of 535.7 kg. It logged 5,715 hours at sea against a median of 3,398 hours for its type that year. 1.6% of its 2019 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.5%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 75 in 2018 to 90 in 2019 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 comparable vessels listed below with a 2019 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2019
Position 1,397 of 1,549 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 90th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 17.0; this vessel reported 43.9.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 260,617,225 tonne-miles over 50,617 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2019 was 30.8% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2018 to 2019, emissions rose 30.8% while distance sailed rose 24.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 5.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
