THESEUS against its type
Built in 2016, it is 8 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 148,386 gross tonnage it is larger than 89% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 336 container ships here under the Malta flag, 9.6% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 563 other vessels here, 243 of them container ships. The returns for 2018–2024 all give Valletta as port of registry.
Its 59,045 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 3.3 times the median of 17,769 t among the 2,101 container ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 837.9 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 4,191 hours at sea against a median of 3,325 hours for its type that year. 1.3% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 2.8%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (59,045 t) and the lowest 2023 (5,969 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 9 in 2018 to 18 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 299 of 1,661 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 18th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.4; this vessel reported 8.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 7,096,733,173 tonne-miles over 70,467 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 42.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 889.2% while distance sailed rose 716.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 21.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
