CAPE CITIUS against its type
Built in 2021, it is 13 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). It is one of 119 container ships here under the Cyprus flag, 3.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The returns for 2023–2025 all give Limassol as port of registry.
Its 14,741 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 347.4 kg CO₂, 36% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,183 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 4.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (29,245 t) and the lowest 2022 (1,149 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 59 in 2023 to 75 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,380 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 75th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 22.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 645,667,543 tonne-miles over 42,436 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 1,182.4% higher than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 44.7% while distance sailed fell 36.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 12.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
