MANILA EXPRESS against its type
Built in 2024, it is 16 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 229,376 gross tonnage it is larger than 98% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 63 container ships here under the Germany flag, 1.8% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 660 other vessels here, 231 of them container ships. Hapag-Lloyd is linked to 28 vessels on this register. The returns for 2023–2025 all give Hamburg as port of registry.
Its 68,074 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 4.2 times the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 951.6 kg CO₂, 1.7 times the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,297 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 1.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (68,074 t) and the lowest 2023 (23,794 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 4 in 2023 to 3 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
