LIVERPOOL EXPRESS against its type
Built in 2002, it is 6 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 46,009 gross tonnage it is smaller than 50% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 15 container ships here under the Bermuda flag, 0.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 660 other vessels here, 231 of them container ships. Hapag-Lloyd is linked to 28 vessels on this register. The reported port of registry changed: Hamburg (2018–2020), then Hamilton (2021–2025).
Its 38,337 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.3 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 580.6 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 5,251 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 3.2% 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 (45,577 t) and the lowest 2023 (22,108 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 63 in 2018 to 80 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,470 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 80th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 25.8.
Across the 24 ranked vessels operated by Hapag-Lloyd, the median percentile is 29. This vessel is less efficient than its own fleet median.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,485,365,362 tonne-miles over 66,028 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 15.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 46.7% while distance sailed rose 26.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 16.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
