CHIQUITA EXPRESS against its type
Built in 2005, it is 3 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 27,059 gross tonnage it is smaller than 67% 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 32 other vessels here, 21 of them container ships. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 20,725 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 27% above the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 383.5 kg CO₂, 30% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 3,676 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 1.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (39,793 t) and the lowest 2021 (19,414 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 88 in 2019 to 98 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,809 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 98th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 58.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 353,188,480 tonne-miles over 54,043 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 46.6% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 4.4% while distance sailed fell 0.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.1%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
