ILONA against its type
Built in 2001, it is 7 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 75,590 gross tonnage it is larger than 66% 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 660 other vessels here, 231 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it MSC ILONA for 2018–2021 and ILONA for 2024. The reported port of registry changed: MADEIRA (2018), then MONROVIA (2019–2024).
Its 3,280 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 82% below the median of 17,769 t among the 2,101 container ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 616.2 kg CO₂, 17% above the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 410 hours at sea against a median of 3,325 hours for its type that year. 2.3% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 2.8%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (59,615 t) and the lowest 2024 (3,280 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 43 in 2018 to 40 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 669 of 1,661 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 40th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.4; this vessel reported 12.9.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 254,622,671 tonne-miles over 5,322 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 75.0% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2024, emissions fell 85.8% while distance sailed fell 80.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 26.7%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
