BJORG 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 9,981 gross tonnage it is smaller than 90% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 73 container ships here under the Antigua and Barbuda flag, 2.1% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 180 other vessels here, 110 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it BJORG for 2018–2021, SUSAN BORCHARD for 2022–2023 and BJORG for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: St. Johns (2018), then Saint John's (2019), then St. John's (2020–2021), then St.Johns (2022–2023), then St. John's (2024–2025).
Its 11,711 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 257.9 kg CO₂, 53% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,137 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 12.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (17,862 t) and the lowest 2019 (11,092 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 88 in 2018 to 94 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,718 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 94th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 42.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 275,350,576 tonne-miles over 45,413 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 6.0% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 33.4% while distance sailed fell 34.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
