MSC CHLOE against its type

Built in 2016, it is 8 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 94,469 gross tonnage it is larger 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. MSC Shipmanagement is linked to 109 vessels on this register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Madeira as port of registry.

Its 52,955 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 3.2 times the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 911.6 kg CO₂, 1.7 times the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 3,936 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 4.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (67,538 t) and the lowest 2019 (6,549 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 29 in 2018 to 45 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 832 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 45th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 13.0.

Across the 102 ranked vessels operated by MSC Shipmanagement, the median percentile is 59. This vessel is more efficient than its own fleet median.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 4,070,351,268 tonne-miles over 58,089 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 21.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 37.5% while distance sailed rose 26.7%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 8.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
