MAERSK SHEKOU 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 94,407 gross tonnage it is larger than 75% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 362 container ships here under the Singapore flag, 10.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 660 other vessels here, 231 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it NORTHERN JUPITER for 2019–2022 and MAERSK SHEKOU for 2023. The reported port of registry changed: Madeira (2019–2022), then Singapore (2023).
Its 26,549 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 1.8 times the median of 14,627 t among the 1,920 container ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 771.6 kg CO₂, 1.5 times the type median of 509.2 kg. It logged 2,291 hours at sea against a median of 2,716 hours for its type that year. 10.3% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 4.0%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (26,549 t) and the lowest 2022 (5,000 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 23 in 2019 to 51 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 855 of 1,664 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 51st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 17.4; this vessel reported 17.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,491,501,124 tonne-miles over 34,407 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 296.2% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions rose 431.0% while distance sailed rose 544.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 17.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
