MSC RITA against its type

Built in 2005, it is 3 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 89,954 gross tonnage it is larger than 70% 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 133 other vessels here, 105 of them container ships. Mediterranean Shipping Company SRL is linked to 105 vessels on this register. The returns for 2018–2022 all give Panama as port of registry.

Its 15,774 t of CO₂ for 2022 is close to the median of 15,388 t among the 1,858 container ships on this register that reported for 2022. Per nautical mile it emitted 839.1 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 539.7 kg. It logged 1,088 hours at sea against a median of 2,699 hours for its type that year. 2.6% of its 2022 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 4.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (56,133 t) and the lowest 2022 (15,774 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 36 in 2018 to 30 in 2022 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2022 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Position 486 of 1,589 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 30th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 16.9; this vessel reported 12.2.

0255075100more efficientless efficientThis vessel: 30th percentile, EEOI 12.2

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 1,298,237,860 tonne-miles over 18,798 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2022 was 71.9% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, so the series has gaps.

From 2021 to 2022, emissions fell 22.7% while distance sailed fell 19.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 3.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
