The reported port of registry changed: Alexndria (2019–2020), then PANAMA (2022–2025).

Its 3,790 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 77% below the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 177.7 kg CO₂, 67% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 3,565 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 5.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (3,929 t) and the lowest 2019 (248 t). Of the 6 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 1,428.3% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 314.6% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 42.1%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 6 MRV reporting years, 5 of 5 vessel particulars and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
