MAERSK ESSEX against its type
Built in 2011, it is 3 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 (2019–2021).
Its 2,034 t of CO₂ for 2021 is 87% below the median of 16,246 t among the 1,825 container ships on this register that reported for 2021. Per nautical mile it emitted 984.7 kg CO₂, 1.8 times the type median of 562.2 kg. It logged 118 hours at sea against a median of 2,808 hours for its type that year. 4.4% of its 2021 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.9%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (29,719 t) and the lowest 2021 (2,034 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type was 10 in both 2018 and 2020.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2021 was 93.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2020 to 2021, emissions fell 89.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 10.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
