LOTUS A against its type
Built in 2010, it is 2 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 91,621 gross tonnage it is larger than 72% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 976 container ships here under the Liberia flag, 27.9% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 461 other vessels here, 155 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it SM NEW YORK for 2019 and LOTUS A for 2020–2022. The returns for 2019–2022 all give MONROVIA as port of registry.
Its 23,337 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 1.5 times the median of 15,388 t among the 1,858 container ships on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 746.9 kg CO₂, 38% above the type median of 539.7 kg. It logged 2,248 hours at sea against a median of 2,699 hours for its type that year. 7.2% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 4.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (31,030 t) and the lowest 2020 (10,751 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 40 in 2019 to 22 in 2022 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2022
Position 345 of 1,589 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 22nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 16.9; this vessel reported 10.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 2,252,615,830 tonne-miles over 31,246 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 24.8% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2021 to 2022, emissions rose 10.2% while distance sailed rose 14.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 3.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
