CMA CGM LIBRA 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 131,332 gross tonnage it is larger than 85% 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 761 other vessels here, 355 of them container ships. The returns for 2018–2021 all give Valletta as port of registry.
Its 24,193 t of CO₂ for 2021 is 49% above the median of 16,246 t among the 1,825 container ships on this register that reported for 2021. Per nautical mile it emitted 857.4 kg CO₂, 1.5 times the type median of 562.2 kg. It logged 1,917 hours at sea against a median of 2,808 hours for its type that year. 4.5% of its 2021 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.9%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (24,193 t) and the lowest 2020 (7,522 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 16 in 2018 to 12 in 2021 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2021 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2021
Position 186 of 1,557 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 12th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 16.2; this vessel reported 8.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 3,035,493,099 tonne-miles over 28,216 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2021 was 100.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2021, emissions rose 221.6% while distance sailed rose 247.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 7.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
