CMA CGM C COLOMB against its type
Built in 2009, it is 1 year newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 153,022 gross tonnage it is larger than 92% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 336 container ships here under the Malta flag, 9.6% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 660 other vessels here, 231 of them container ships. CMA CGM is linked to 40 vessels on this register. The reported port of registry changed: MARSEILLE (2018–2019), then Valletta (2020).
Its 16,392 t of CO₂ for 2020 is close to the median of 16,763 t among the 1,837 container ships on this register that reported for 2020. Per nautical mile it emitted 872.7 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 536.8 kg. It logged 1,252 hours at sea against a median of 2,806 hours for its type that year. 0.5% of its 2020 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.7%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (59,139 t) and the lowest 2020 (16,392 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 7 in 2018 to 0 in 2020 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2020
Position 2 of 1,525 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 0th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.9; this vessel reported 4.2.
Across the 39 ranked vessels operated by CMA CGM, the median percentile is 26. This vessel is more efficient than its own fleet median.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 3,949,961,446 tonne-miles over 18,784 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2020 was 72.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2019 to 2020, emissions fell 19.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.1%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
