MSC ROSSELLA III against its type

Built in 2006, it is 2 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 27,971 gross tonnage it is smaller than 66% 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 61 other vessels here, 49 of them container ships. The returns for 2024–2025 all give MADEIRA as port of registry.

Its 12,549 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 23% 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 392.1 kg CO₂, 28% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 3,422 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 9.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Of the 5 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 551,620,659 tonne-miles over 32,002 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

2024: 3,605 t20243,6052025: 12,549 t202512,549

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 248.1% higher than in 2024, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 248.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 11.0%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
