Its 10,646 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 35% 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 796.5 kg CO₂, 46% above the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 904 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 4.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 2 in 2024 to 56 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year

2024: 20,575 t202420,5752025: 10,646 t202510,646

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 48.3% lower than in 2024, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 48.3% while distance sailed fell 48.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose <0.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
