MSC NEDERLAND against its type

Built in 1992, it is 16 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 37,071 gross tonnage it is smaller than 59% 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 9 other vessels here, 3 of them container ships. Mediterranean Shipping Company is linked to 44 vessels on this register. Its MRV returns name it MSC NEDERLAND for 2018–2022 and MSC NEDERLAND III for 2023–2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Panama as port of registry.

Its 17,706 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 495.0 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 2,833 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 3.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (36,593 t) and the lowest 2025 (17,706 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 58 in 2018 to 83 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 1,520 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 83rd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 28.4.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 83rd percentile, EEOI 28.4

Across the 34 ranked vessels operated by Mediterranean Shipping Company, the median percentile is 52. This vessel is less efficient than its own fleet median.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 623,014,426 tonne-miles over 35,771 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 47.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 26.1% while distance sailed fell 29.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 5.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
