At 11,894 gross tonnage it is smaller than 86% 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 204 other vessels here, 32 of them container ships. Its MRV returns name it OSLO WAVE 5 for 2018–2020 and MSC WAVE F for 2024–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Majuro (2019–2020), then Monrovia (2024–2025).

Its 9,305 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 43% below the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 267.8 kg CO₂, 51% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 3,919 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 4.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2020 (14,669 t) and the lowest 2024 (2,706 t). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 30.8% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 243.9% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 15.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 5 MRV reporting years, 5 of 5 vessel particulars and a name history. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a licensed photograph, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
