MAERSK NUBA against its type

Built in 2008, it is the same age as the median container ship on this register (build year 2008, 3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 25,904 gross tonnage it is smaller than 70% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 202 container ships here under the Hong Kong flag, 5.8% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 35 other vessels here, 26 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it SAFMARINE NUBA for 2018–2022 and MAERSK NUBA for 2023–2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Hong Kong as port of registry.

Its 16,680 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 287.9 kg CO₂, 47% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 5,295 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 6.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (16,680 t) and the lowest 2021 (965 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 36 in 2018 to 57 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 7 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
