KATHERINE BORCHARD 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 9,962 gross tonnage it is smaller than 91% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 73 container ships here under the Antigua and Barbuda flag, 2.1% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 180 other vessels here, 110 of them container ships. The reported port of registry changed: Saint John's (2019–2021), then St. Johns (2022–2023), then Saint John's (2024), then St. Johns (2025).
Its 19,536 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 19% above the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 251.9 kg CO₂, 54% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 5,595 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 1.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (21,103 t) and the lowest 2019 (10,607 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 91 in 2019 to 97 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,782 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 97th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 51.9.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 376,347,717 tonne-miles over 77,552 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 84.2% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 26.1% while distance sailed rose 15.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 9.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
