BUXWAVE 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 62,702 gross tonnage it is larger than 58% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 15 container ships here under the Italy flag, 0.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 86 other vessels here, 35 of them container ships. Mediterranean Shipping Company is linked to 44 vessels on this register. Its MRV returns name it MSC GENEVA for 2018–2022, BUXWAVE for 2023 and JOLLY BIANCO for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: MADEIRA (2018–2020), then Monrovia (2021–2023), then Genoa (2024–2025).
Its 7,386 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 55% 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 565.6 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 1,162 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 11.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (61,424 t) and the lowest 2025 (7,386 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 42 in 2018 to 70 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 8 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,296 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 70th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 20.8.
Across the 34 ranked vessels operated by Mediterranean Shipping Company, the median percentile is 52. This vessel is less efficient than its own fleet median.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 355,272,246 tonne-miles over 13,058 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 87.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 71.2% while distance sailed fell 67.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 12.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
