MSC RIDA 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 94,511 gross tonnage it is larger than 76% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 307 container ships here under the Portugal flag, 8.8% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 355 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it VARNA BAY for 2020–2021 and MSC RIDA for 2022–2023. The reported port of registry changed: Monrovia (2020–2021), then Madeira (2022–2023).
Its 23,870 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 1.6 times the median of 14,627 t among the 1,920 container ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 866.8 kg CO₂, 1.7 times the type median of 509.2 kg. It logged 1,750 hours at sea against a median of 2,716 hours for its type that year. 1.2% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 4.0%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (43,129 t) and the lowest 2020 (20,765 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 32 in 2020 to 31 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2023 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 515 of 1,664 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 31st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 17.4; this vessel reported 11.8.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 2,028,029,737 tonne-miles over 27,539 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 15.0% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 43.4% while distance sailed fell 41.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 3.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
