MSC BIANCA against its type

Built in 2019, it is 11 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 112,695 gross tonnage it is larger than 82% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 976 container ships here under the Liberia flag, 27.9% of the 3,495 on the register. The returns for 2019–2025 all give monrovia as port of registry.

Its 24,058 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 47% above the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 776.4 kg CO₂, 42% above the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 2,349 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 4.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (46,346 t) and the lowest 2019 (23,298 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 36 in 2019 to 29 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 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 535 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 29th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 9.8.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 2,459,916,155 tonne-miles over 30,988 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 3.3% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 1.1% while distance sailed rose 2.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 1.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
