CONTSHIP SEA against its type

Built in 2007, it is 1 year older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 15,345 gross tonnage it is smaller than 84% 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 127 other vessels here, 46 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it INDEPENDENT CONCEPT for 2018, CONTSHIP SEA for 2019–2024 and MSC GAETA II for 2025. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.

Its 11,978 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 27% 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 335.9 kg CO₂, 38% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 2,991 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 9.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (12,743 t) and the lowest 2022 (9,668 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 76 in 2018 to 96 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 1,764 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 96th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 48.7.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 7.5% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 6.0% while distance sailed fell 10.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 5.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
