MSC EMMA 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 108,000 gross tonnage it is larger than 81% 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. The returns for 2019–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 8,460 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 48% 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 835.0 kg CO₂, 1.5 times the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 695 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 4.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (58,769 t) and the lowest 2025 (8,460 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 17 in 2019 to 67 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 1,224 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 67th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 19.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 442,913,613 tonne-miles over 10,131 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 85.6% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2023, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2021 to 2025, emissions fell 70.2% while distance sailed fell 62.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 20.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
