MSC ROWAN against its type

Built in 2012, it is 4 years newer than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 40,542 gross tonnage it is smaller than 54% 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 21 other vessels here, 10 of them container ships. The returns for 2022–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.

Its 18,170 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 11% above the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 469.2 kg CO₂, 14% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 2,965 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 6.3% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (18,245 t) and the lowest 2022 (4,134 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 47 in 2022 to 66 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2025 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.
