MEDITERRANEAN EXPRESS against its type
Built in 2014, it is 6 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 47,873 gross tonnage it is larger than 50% 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 returns for 2021–2025 all give Singapore as port of registry.
Its 26,697 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.6 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 431.9 kg CO₂, 21% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,863 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 2.2% 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 (26,697 t) and the lowest 2024 (11,453 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 42 in 2021 to 58 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,061 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 58th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 16.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,628,872,483 tonne-miles over 61,812 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 7.1% higher than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 133.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 6.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
