Per nautical mile it emitted 747.5 kg CO₂, 47% above the type median of 509.2 kg. It logged 735 hours at sea against a median of 2,716 hours for its type that year. 3.5% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 4.0%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 11 in 2022 to 17 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 292 of 1,664 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 17th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 17.4; this vessel reported 8.6.
Across the 34 ranked vessels operated by Mediterranean Shipping Company, the median percentile is 52. This vessel is more efficient than its own fleet median.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 915,445,221 tonne-miles over 10,508 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 182.3% higher than in 2022, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions rose 182.3% while distance sailed rose 188.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 2.1%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
