MSC ELISA against its type
Built in 2011, it is 3 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 126,456 gross tonnage it is larger than 85% 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 same builder is recorded for 461 other vessels here, 155 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it MSC ELISA for 2018 and MSC ELISA XIII for 2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 8,244 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 50% 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 1,063.8 kg CO₂, 1.9 times the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 758 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 6.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 33 in 2018 to 47 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 5 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 873 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 47th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 13.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 603,966,300 tonne-miles over 7,750 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 59.3% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2018 to 2025, emissions rose 59.3% while distance sailed rose 76.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 9.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
