ULSAN EXPRESS against its type
Built in 2014, it is 6 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 142,000 gross tonnage it is larger than 88% 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. The reported port of registry changed: Hamburg (2019–2024), then Monrovia (2025).
Its 12,966 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 21% 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 889.6 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 1,149 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 2.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (49,252 t) and the lowest 2024 (12,027 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 13 in 2019 to 36 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 672 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 36th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 11.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,176,578,947 tonne-miles over 14,574 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 73.7% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 7.8% while distance sailed rose 4.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.5%.
