MERCURY ACE against its type

Built in 2011, it is 3 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 59,409 gross tonnage it is larger than 57% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 177 vehicle carriers here under the Panama flag, 24.8% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 136 other vessels here, 36 of them vehicle carriers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give PANAMA as port of registry.

Its 6,730 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 330.3 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 1,408 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 2.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (12,330 t) and the lowest 2021 (3,094 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 39 in 2018 to 41 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 175 of 423 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 41st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 51.7; this vessel reported 47.1.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 41st percentile, EEOI 47.1

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 142,940,527 tonne-miles over 20,376 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 10.7% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 12.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 7.1%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
