IZMIT EXPRESS against its type
Built in 2017, it is 9 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 31,425 gross tonnage it is smaller than 63% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 336 container ships here under the Malta flag, 9.6% of the 3,495 on the register. ARKAS Line is linked to 47 vessels on this register. The reported port of registry changed: Izmir (2022), then Valletta (2023–2025).
Its 26,627 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.6 times the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 393.0 kg CO₂, 28% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,685 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 3.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (26,627 t) and the lowest 2022 (7,159 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 57 in 2022 to 64 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
