DETROIT EXPRESS against its type
Built in 2014, it is 6 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 41,286 gross tonnage it is smaller than 53% 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 133 other vessels here, 105 of them container ships. Anglo-Eastern Ship Management is linked to 133 vessels on this register. The reported port of registry changed: Hong Kong (2018–2023), then Monrovia (2024–2025).
Its 31,351 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.9 times the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 465.0 kg CO₂, 15% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 5,047 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 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (31,351 t) and the lowest 2023 (18,385 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 59 in 2018 to 70 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,289 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 70th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 20.6.
Across the 102 ranked vessels operated by Anglo-Eastern Ship Management, the median percentile is 55. This vessel is less efficient than its own fleet median.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,525,581,995 tonne-miles over 67,424 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 34.8% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 23.9% while distance sailed rose 18.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 4.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
