KUALA LUMPUR EXPRESS against its type
Built in 2007, it is 1 year older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 93,811 gross tonnage it is larger than 74% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 63 container ships here under the Germany flag, 1.8% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 355 of them container ships. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Hamburg as port of registry.
Its 19,484 t of CO₂ for 2024 is close to the median of 17,769 t among the 2,101 container ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 689.8 kg CO₂, 31% above the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 1,571 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 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (19,484 t) and the lowest 2019 (2,004 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 34 in 2018 to 45 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2024 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 744 of 1,661 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 45th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.4; this vessel reported 13.9.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,400,725,377 tonne-miles over 28,245 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 26.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2019 to 2024, emissions rose 872.4% while distance sailed rose 875.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 0.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
