MEDKON PEP against its type
Built in 2006, it is 2 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 9,981 gross tonnage it is smaller than 90% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 976 container ships here under the Liberia flag, 27.9% of the 3,495 on the register. Its MRV returns name it VEGA HERCULES for 2018–2020 and MEDKON PEP for 2024–2025. The returns for 2018–2020 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 3,893 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 78% below the median of 17,769 t among the 2,101 container ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 269.9 kg CO₂, 49% below the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 1,361 hours at sea against a median of 3,325 hours for its type that year. 4.6% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 2.8%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (7,591 t) and the lowest 2024 (3,893 t).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 11.7% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2024, emissions fell 48.7% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 23.1%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
