SAVANNAH EXPRESS against its type

Built in 2013, it is 5 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 149,475 gross tonnage it is larger 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. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 355 of them container ships. Hapag-Lloyd is linked to 28 vessels on this register. Its MRV returns name it THALASSA PATRIS for 2018–2022 and SAVANNAH EXPRESS for 2023–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Singapore (2018–2020), then Monrovia (2021–2025).

Its 26,458 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.6 times the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 761.4 kg CO₂, 40% above the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 2,402 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 1.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (64,206 t) and the lowest 2020 (11,306 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 10 in 2018 to 4 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 72 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 4th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 6.2.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 4th percentile, EEOI 6.2

Across the 24 ranked vessels operated by Hapag-Lloyd, the median percentile is 29. This vessel is more efficient than its own fleet median.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 4,302,073,171 tonne-miles over 34,751 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 49.3% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2024, so the series has gaps.

From 2023 to 2025, emissions rose 19.2% while distance sailed rose 26.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 5.8%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
