HSL PORTSMOUTH 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 25,406 gross tonnage it is smaller than 72% 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 HSL PORTSMOUTH for 2018–2021 and PORTSMOUTH for 2022–2025. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.

Its 1,966 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 88% below the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 481.5 kg CO₂, 12% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 362 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 2.3% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (19,836 t) and the lowest 2024 (1,708 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 58 in 2018 to 78 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 90.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 15.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 34.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
