GUNVOR MAERSK against its type

Built in 2005, it is 3 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 98,648 gross tonnage it is larger than 78% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 119 container ships here under the Denmark flag, 3.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 64 other vessels here, 53 of them container ships. The returns for 2023–2024 all give Aalborg as port of registry.

Its 9,902 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 44% below the median of 17,769 t among the 2,101 container ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 820.2 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 834 hours at sea against a median of 3,325 hours for its type that year. 0.5% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 2.8%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 21 in 2023 to 53 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2024 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 883 of 1,661 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 53rd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.4; this vessel reported 16.2.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 612,734,530 tonne-miles over 12,073 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 61.0% higher than in 2023, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 61.0% while distance sailed rose 21.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 32.6%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
