MAERSK EDINBURGH 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 141,716 gross tonnage it is larger than 87% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 119 container ships here under the Denmark flag, 3.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 355 of them container ships. The reported port of registry changed: Copenhagen (2018), then Kobenhavn (2019–2020).
Its 7,250 t of CO₂ for 2020 is 57% below the median of 16,763 t among the 1,837 container ships on this register that reported for 2020. Per nautical mile it emitted 814.4 kg CO₂, 1.5 times the type median of 536.8 kg. It logged 584 hours at sea against a median of 2,806 hours for its type that year. 3.0% of its 2020 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.7%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (10,850 t) and the lowest 2020 (7,250 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 7 in 2018 to 4 in 2020 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2020
Position 60 of 1,525 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 4th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.9; this vessel reported 5.9.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,224,733,108 tonne-miles over 8,903 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2020 was 33.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2019 to 2020, emissions fell 11.5% while distance sailed rose 0.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 11.6%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
