POLAR COSTA RICA against its type
Built in 2017, it is 9 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 43,628 gross tonnage it is smaller than 51% 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 same builder is recorded for 211 other vessels here, 61 of them container ships. The returns for 2018–2022 all give Singapore as port of registry.
Its 4,551 t of CO₂ for 2022 is 70% below the median of 15,388 t among the 1,858 container ships on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 443.7 kg CO₂, 18% below the type median of 539.7 kg. It logged 833 hours at sea against a median of 2,699 hours for its type that year. 6.0% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 4.2%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (36,455 t) and the lowest 2022 (4,551 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 89 in 2018 to 49 in 2021 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2022 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 87.5% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2021 to 2022, emissions fell 85.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 1.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
