HELLE RITSCHER 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 17,360 gross tonnage it is smaller than 80% 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 180 other vessels here, 110 of them container ships.

Its 15,674 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 341.6 kg CO₂, 37% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 2,862 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 7.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 72 in 2018 to 88 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 7 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 451,170,697 tonne-miles over 45,879 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

2018: 16,407 t201816,4072025: 15,674 t202515,674

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 4.5% lower 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 fell 4.5% while distance sailed fell 30.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 37.4%.
