GSL ALICE 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 39,905 gross tonnage it is smaller than 57% 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 101 other vessels here, 74 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it NORDIC MACAU for 2019–2020 and GSL ALICE for 2021–2025. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 31,686 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 526.1 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,510 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 1.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (31,686 t) and the lowest 2019 (9,924 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 90 in 2020 to 72 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 1,322 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 72nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 21.5.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,473,766,977 tonne-miles over 60,228 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 219.3% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 11.9% while distance sailed rose 0.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 11.2%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
