IRENA ARCTICA against its type
Built in 1994, it is 14 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 8,939 gross tonnage it is smaller than 95% 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 12 other vessels here, 5 of them container ships. The returns for 2019–2024 all give Aalborg as port of registry.
Its 747 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 96% 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 195.6 kg CO₂, 63% below the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 335 hours at sea against a median of 3,325 hours for its type that year. 0.8% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 2.8%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (1,632 t) and the lowest 2020 (483 t).

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 54.2% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 32.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 17.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
