MSC TAMARA 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 41,225 gross tonnage it is smaller than 53% 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. MSC Shipmanagement is linked to 109 vessels on this register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Panama as port of registry.

Its 35,793 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 593.7 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,923 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 5.3% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (45,175 t) and the lowest 2019 (13,877 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 62 in 2018 to 75 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
