MSC VAISHNAVI R. against its type

Built in 2002, it is 6 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 45,803 gross tonnage it is smaller than 50% 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 563 other vessels here, 243 of them container ships. MSC Shipmanagement is linked to 109 vessels on this register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Monrovia as port of registry.

Its 39,565 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.4 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 667.4 kg CO₂, 22% above the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,099 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 2.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (53,050 t) and the lowest 2024 (18,815 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 70 in 2018 to 74 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 4 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 1,367 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 74th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 22.6.

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 1,752,994,683 tonne-miles over 59,282 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 13.5% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 110.3% while distance sailed rose 115.8%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 2.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
