MIRADOR EXPRESS: CO₂ emissions 2018–2024

MIRADOR EXPRESS against its type

Built in 2002, it is 6 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 40,146 gross tonnage it is smaller than 55% 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. The same builder is recorded for 80 other vessels here, 61 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it YORKTOWN EXPRESS for 2018–2020 and MIRADOR EXPRESS for 2021–2024. The reported port of registry changed: Yorktown, VA (2018–2020), then Monrovia (2021–2024).

Its 5,155 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 71% 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 514.5 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 622 hours at sea against a median of 3,325 hours for its type that year. 1.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 2.8%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (49,226 t) and the lowest 2024 (5,155 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 68 in 2018 to 71 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2024 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2024

Position 1,177 of 1,661 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 71st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.4; this vessel reported 21.8.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 236,158,039 tonne-miles over 10,019 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 89.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 59.3% while distance sailed fell 65.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 19.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
