JOLLY EXPRESS against its type
Built in 1999, it is 3 years older than the median ro-ro ship on this register, which was built in 2002 (281 vessels with a known build year). At 20,343 gross tonnage it is smaller than 55% of the other 269 ro-ro ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 16 ro-ro ships here under the Portugal flag, 5.1% of the 311 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 563 other vessels here, one of them a ro-ro ship. Messina Line is linked to 2 vessels on this register. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Madeira as port of registry.
Its 11,169 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 48% below the median of 21,362 t among the 238 ro-ro ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 323.2 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 327.0 kg. It logged 3,988 hours at sea against a median of 4,872 hours for its type that year. 7.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for ro-ro ships was 4.3%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (11,979 t) and the lowest 2019 (4,899 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 41 in 2019 to 28 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2025 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 54 of 192 qualifying ro-ro ships by EEOI, at the 28th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 85.3; this vessel reported 65.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 169,661,856 tonne-miles over 34,558 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 128.0% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 7.9% while distance sailed rose 14.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 5.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
