MAERSK LINS against its type

Built in 2012, it is 4 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 89,505 gross tonnage it is larger than 70% 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 660 other vessels here, 231 of them container ships. The reported port of registry changed: Hong Kong (2018–2020), then Copenhagen (2025).

Its 17,138 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 665.7 kg CO₂, 22% above the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 1,796 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 1.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (24,239 t) and the lowest 2020 (3,974 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 44 in 2018 to 33 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 613 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 33rd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 10.5.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,627,502,374 tonne-miles over 25,743 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 29.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.

From 2020 to 2025, emissions rose 331.3% while distance sailed rose 278.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 14.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
