MSC SORAYA against its type

Built in 2008, it is the same age as the median container ship on this register (build year 2008, 3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 66,399 gross tonnage it is larger than 60% 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 563 other vessels here, 243 of them container ships. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Panama as port of registry.

Its 36,699 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.2 times the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 604.2 kg CO₂, 11% above the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,429 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 6.2% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (55,260 t) and the lowest 2023 (15,032 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 47 in 2018 to 40 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 741 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 40th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 11.8.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 3,123,348,936 tonne-miles over 60,738 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 33.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 58.4% while distance sailed rose 60.9%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 1.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
