CONTSHIP GEM against its type
Built in 2003, it is 5 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 9,528 gross tonnage it is smaller than 94% 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 6 other vessels here, 3 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it CONTSHIP GEM for 2020 and MSC VERA F for 2021–2025. The returns for 2020–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 13,503 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 17% below the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 252.8 kg CO₂, 54% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,924 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 2.3% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (17,308 t) and the lowest 2021 (8,405 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 90 in 2021 to 92 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,698 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 92nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 41.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 329,353,415 tonne-miles over 53,424 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 44.5% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 22.0% while distance sailed fell 24.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
