BG RED against its type

Built in 2024, it is 16 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 18,292 gross tonnage it is smaller than 78% 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 returns for 2024–2025 all give Madeira as port of registry.

Its 11,707 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 28% 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 346.4 kg CO₂, 37% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 2,603 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 14.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Of the 3 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 298,964,249 tonne-miles over 33,798 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

2024: 7,011 t20247,0112025: 11,707 t202511,707

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 67.0% higher than in 2024, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 67.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
