CONTSHIP SUN 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 9,981 gross tonnage it is smaller than 90% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 387 container ships here under the Panama flag, 11.1% of the 3,495 on the register. Its MRV returns name it CONTSHIP SUN for 2018–2024 and MEDKON SUN for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Monrovia (2018–2024), then Panama (2025).
Its 8,517 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 48% 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 348.9 kg CO₂, 36% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 3,953 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 4.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (15,466 t) and the lowest 2024 (7,641 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 98 in 2018 to 88 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 8 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 37.8% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 11.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
