MSC SHEILA against its type

Built in 1999, it is 8 years older than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 12,396 gross tonnage it is larger than 69% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 310 general cargo ships here under the Panama flag, 10.1% of the 3,081 on the register. MSC Shipmanagement is linked to 109 vessels on this register. Its MRV returns name it MSC SHEILA for 2018–2023 and MSC SHEILA F for 2024–2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Panama as port of registry.

Its 6,786 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.4 times the median of 2,820 t among the 2,469 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 198.0 kg CO₂, 1.6 times the type median of 122.2 kg. It logged 4,204 hours at sea against a median of 3,044 hours for its type that year. 5.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.3%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (6,786 t) and the lowest 2021 (2,822 t). Of the 3 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 74.9% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 51.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 6.8%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 8 MRV reporting years, 4 of 5 vessel particulars and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
