MAERSK KALAMATA against its type
Built in 2003, it is 5 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 74,656 gross tonnage it is larger than 65% 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 761 other vessels here, 355 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it MAERSK KALAMATA for 2018 and MSC KALAMATA VII for 2024. The reported port of registry changed: Hong Kong (2018), then Monrovia (2024).
Its 6,471 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 64% below the median of 17,769 t among the 2,101 container ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 825.2 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 499 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%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 38 in 2018 to 39 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 645 of 1,661 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 39th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.4; this vessel reported 12.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 511,550,988 tonne-miles over 7,842 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 62.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2018 to 2024, emissions fell 62.6% while distance sailed fell 63.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
