MSC UMA against its type

Built in 1998, it is 10 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 23,722 gross tonnage it is smaller than 73% 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 75 other vessels here, 26 of them container ships. MSC Shipmanagement is linked to 109 vessels on this register. The reported port of registry changed: Valletta (2018), then Madeira (2019–2022), then Monrovia (2023).

Its 13,216 t of CO₂ for 2023 is close to the median of 14,627 t among the 1,920 container ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 392.1 kg CO₂, 23% below the type median of 509.2 kg. It logged 3,826 hours at sea against a median of 2,716 hours for its type that year. 5.0% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 4.0%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (24,393 t) and the lowest 2023 (13,216 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 85 in 2018 to 92 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2023 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2023

Position 1,524 of 1,664 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 92nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 17.4; this vessel reported 47.9.

Across the 102 ranked vessels operated by MSC Shipmanagement, the median percentile is 59. This vessel is less efficient than its own fleet median.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 275,911,065 tonne-miles over 33,710 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 28.8% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 24.2% while distance sailed fell 21.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 3.4%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
