MSC LISBON against its type

Built in 2007, it is 1 year older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 107,849 gross tonnage it is larger than 80% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 119 container ships here under the Cyprus flag, 3.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 563 other vessels here, 243 of them container ships. CPO Containerschiffreederei is linked to 60 vessels on this register. Its MRV returns name it MSC LISBON for 2020–2024 and MSC LISBON IX for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: Monrovia (2020–2024), then Limassol (2025).

Its 22,261 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 36% 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 956.4 kg CO₂, 1.8 times the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 1,830 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 4.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (40,005 t) and the lowest 2024 (8,711 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 26 in 2020 to 45 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2025 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 820 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 45th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 12.8.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 45th percentile, EEOI 12.8

Across the 54 ranked vessels operated by CPO Containerschiffreederei, the median percentile is 48. This vessel is more efficient than its own fleet median.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 1,735,042,868 tonne-miles over 23,275 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 19.0% lower than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 155.5% while distance sailed rose 142.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 5.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
