GSL NINGBO 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 89,097 gross tonnage it is larger than 69% 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. Global Ship Lease is linked to 2 vessels on this register. The returns for 2019–2023 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 9,311 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 36% below the median of 14,627 t among the 1,920 container ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 818.6 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 509.2 kg. It logged 826 hours at sea against a median of 2,716 hours for its type that year. 4.5% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 4.0%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (47,859 t) and the lowest 2020 (1,338 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 28 in 2019 to 37 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 618 of 1,664 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 37th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 17.4; this vessel reported 13.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 701,670,686 tonne-miles over 11,374 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 36.9% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 80.5% while distance sailed fell 76.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 18.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
