MSC ORTOLAN II against its type
Built in 2009, it is 1 year newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 18,326 gross tonnage it is smaller than 77% 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 101 other vessels here, 74 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it OKEE ORTOLAN DELTA for 2021 and MSC ORTOLAN II for 2022–2025. The returns for 2021–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 6,327 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 61% 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 310.6 kg CO₂, 43% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 2,196 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 7.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (10,178 t) and the lowest 2021 (4,559 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 78 in 2022 to 81 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 38.8% higher than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 10.4% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 25.9%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
