MACAO against its type
Built in 2008, it is the same age as the median container ship on this register (build year 2008, 3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 21,018 gross tonnage it is smaller than 75% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 307 container ships here under the Portugal flag, 8.8% of the 3,495 on the register. Its MRV returns name it MACAO STRAIT for 2020 and MACAO for 2021–2025. The returns for 2020–2025 all give Madeira as port of registry.
Its 11,615 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 29% 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 311.9 kg CO₂, 43% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,313 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 7.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (24,011 t) and the lowest 2023 (4,967 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 93 in 2020 to 85 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 1,563 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 85th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 30.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 377,365,497 tonne-miles over 37,245 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 44.7% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 37.4% while distance sailed rose 30.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 4.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
