MSC SIGMA F against its type
Built in 2007, it is 1 year older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 9,940 gross tonnage it is smaller than 93% 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 95 other vessels here, 12 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it VEGA SIGMA for 2018–2020 and MSC SIGMA F for 2021–2024. The returns for 2018–2024 all give Monrovia as port of registry.
Its 3,798 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 79% below the median of 17,769 t among the 2,101 container ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 265.3 kg CO₂, 50% below the type median of 528.5 kg. It logged 1,733 hours at sea against a median of 3,325 hours for its type that year. 2.5% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 2.8%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (10,084 t) and the lowest 2024 (3,798 t).

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 37.8% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 31.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.8%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
