MSC FIE X against its type
Built in 1997, it is 11 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 92,198 gross tonnage it is larger than 73% 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 64 other vessels here, 53 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it SUSAN MAERSK for 2019–2020 and MSC FIE X for 2022–2024. The reported port of registry changed: Hellerup (2019–2020), then MONROVIA (2022–2024).
Its 17,974 t of CO₂ for 2024 is close to the median of 17,769 t among the 2,101 container ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 798.1 kg CO₂, 1.5 times the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 1,837 hours at sea against a median of 3,325 hours for its type that year. 6.0% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 2.8%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (17,974 t) and the lowest 2022 (1,684 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 14 in 2019 to 48 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2024 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 805 of 1,661 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 48th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.4; this vessel reported 15.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,198,256,000 tonne-miles over 22,519 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 33.3% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 506.2% while distance sailed rose 504.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 0.3%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
