CSCL AMERICA against its type

Built in 2004, it is 4 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 90,645 gross tonnage it is larger than 71% 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 563 other vessels here, 243 of them container ships. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Limassol as port of registry.

Its 18,068 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 10% above the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 887.7 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 1,420 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 6.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (41,401 t) and the lowest 2019 (2,160 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 33 in 2020 to 41 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 751 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 41st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 11.8.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,525,997,466 tonne-miles over 20,354 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 736.5% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 454.9% while distance sailed rose 524.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 11.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
