NORDLYS against its type
Built in 1994, it is 6 years older than the median ro-pax ship on this register, which was built in 2000 (483 vessels with a known build year). At 11,204 gross tonnage it is smaller than 74% of the other 470 ro-pax ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 37 ro-pax ships here under the Norway flag, 7.5% of the 493 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 35 other vessels here, 4 of them ro-pax ships. Hurtigruten is linked to 12 vessels on this register. The reported port of registry changed: Tromso (2018–2022), then Tromsø (2023–2025).
Its 9,858 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 67% below the median of 30,062 t among the 417 ro-pax ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 187.8 kg CO₂, 60% below the type median of 467.6 kg. It logged 3,936 hours at sea against a median of 4,243 hours for its type that year. 9.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for ro-pax ships was 6.7%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (19,772 t) and the lowest 2020 (7,420 t). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 49.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 38.4% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 31.1%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
