GSL ELIZABETH against its type

Built in 2006, it is 2 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 27,786 gross tonnage it is smaller than 66% 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 61 other vessels here, 49 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it HAYDN for 2018 and GSL ELIZABETH for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Madeira (2018), then MONROVIA (2025).

Its 15,547 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 422.0 kg CO₂, 23% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 3,313 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 7.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Of the 5 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 1,411 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 77th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 23.7.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 655,176,148 tonne-miles over 36,844 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

2018: 2,259 t20182,2592025: 15,547 t202515,547

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 588.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.

From 2018 to 2025, emissions rose 588.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 30.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
