E.R. DENMARK against its type
Built in 2002, it is 6 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 65,792 gross tonnage it is larger than 59% 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 563 other vessels here, 243 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it E.R. DENMARK for 2018 and MSC DENMARK VI for 2022–2025. The returns for 2022–2025 all give MONROVIA as port of registry.
Its 31,037 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 745.6 kg CO₂, 37% above the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 3,265 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 5.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (35,295 t) and the lowest 2022 (3,779 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 46 in 2023 to 54 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 992 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 54th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 15.2.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 2,037,910,046 tonne-miles over 41,625 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 721.3% higher than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 4.2% while distance sailed fell 14.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 12.4%.
