CACHALOT against its type

Built in 2000, it is 8 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 14,278 gross tonnage it is smaller than 84% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 119 container ships here under the Marshall Islands flag, 3.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 133 other vessels here, 105 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it CHARLOTTE BORCHARD for 2018–2023 and CACHALOT for 2024–2025. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Majuro as port of registry.

Its 8,316 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 49% 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 274.7 kg CO₂, 50% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 2,319 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 7.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (31,029 t) and the lowest 2025 (8,316 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 95 in 2018 to 86 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 1,586 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 86th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 32.8.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 253,690,055 tonne-miles over 30,273 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 73.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 47.7% while distance sailed fell 40.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 12.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
