YANTIAN against its type
Built in 2006, it is 2 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 109,149 gross tonnage it is larger than 81% 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 761 other vessels here, 355 of them container ships. The returns for 2020–2025 all give VALLETTA as port of registry.
Its 22,057 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 35% above the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 864.9 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 1,493 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 1.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (31,465 t) and the lowest 2022 (9,086 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 38 in 2020 to 42 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 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 777 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 42nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 12.2.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,809,416,735 tonne-miles over 25,502 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 29.9% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2025, emissions rose 142.8% while distance sailed rose 113.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 13.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
