MSC MICHAELA against its type
Built in 2002, it is 6 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 73,819 gross tonnage it is larger than 64% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 387 container ships here under the Panama flag, 11.1% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 355 of them container ships. Mediterranean Shipping Company SRL is linked to 105 vessels on this register. The returns for 2019–2024 all give Panama as port of registry.
Its 9,876 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 44% below the median of 17,769 t among the 2,101 container ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 719.4 kg CO₂, 36% above the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 821 hours at sea against a median of 3,325 hours for its type that year. 1.7% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 2.8%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (37,287 t) and the lowest 2023 (4,705 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 65 in 2019 to 28 in 2024 (lower is more efficient).

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 473 of 1,661 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 28th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 15.4; this vessel reported 10.4.
Across the 103 ranked vessels operated by Mediterranean Shipping Company SRL, the median percentile is 37. This vessel is more efficient than its own fleet median.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 952,398,264 tonne-miles over 13,728 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 30.1% lower than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions rose 109.9% while distance sailed rose 102.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
