CONTAINERSHIPS AURORA against its type
Built in 2019, it is 11 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 17,950 gross tonnage it is smaller than 78% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 119 container ships here under the Cyprus flag, 3.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 101 other vessels here, 74 of them container ships. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Limassol as port of registry.
Its 14,960 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 208.9 kg CO₂, 62% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 5,524 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 6.5% 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 (16,959 t) and the lowest 2019 (4,377 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 80 in 2020 to 70 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,295 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 70th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 20.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 719,926,372 tonne-miles over 71,600 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 241.8% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 7.1% while distance sailed rose 21.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 12.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
