At 10,944 gross tonnage it is smaller than 81% of the other 117 passenger ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 8 passenger ships here under the France flag, 6.1% of the 132 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 132 other vessels here, 29 of them passenger ships. Ponant is linked to 5 vessels on this register. The returns for 2019–2025 all give MATA UTU as port of registry.
Its 3,287 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 53% below the median of 7,055 t among the 32 passenger ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 243.4 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 248.9 kg. It logged 1,356 hours at sea against a median of 2,827 hours for its type that year. 8.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for passenger ships was 12.8%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (5,352 t) and the lowest 2023 (2,018 t). Of the 2 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 38.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 49.5% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 6.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
