CMA CGM MEKONG against its type
Built in 2015, it is 7 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 94,730 gross tonnage it is larger than 76% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 119 container ships here under the Denmark flag, 3.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The returns for 2021–2023 all give SKOVSHOVED as port of registry.
Its 4,552 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 69% below the median of 14,627 t among the 1,920 container ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 783.8 kg CO₂, 1.5 times the type median of 509.2 kg. It logged 668 hours at sea against a median of 2,716 hours for its type that year. 6.3% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 4.0%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (4,552 t) and the lowest 2021 (3,989 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 22 in 2021 to 25 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 412 of 1,664 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 25th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 17.4; this vessel reported 10.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 439,844,444 tonne-miles over 5,808 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 14.1% higher than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions rose 10.8% while distance sailed fell 4.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 16.1%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
