PONT-AVEN against its type

Built in 2004, it is 4 years newer than the median ro-pax ship on this register, which was built in 2000 (483 vessels with a known build year). At 40,859 gross tonnage it is larger than 88% of the other 470 ro-pax ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 27 ro-pax ships here under the France flag, 5.5% of the 493 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 65 other vessels here, 2 of them ro-pax ships. Brittany Ferries is linked to 11 vessels on this register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Morlaix as port of registry.

Its 79,226 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.6 times the median of 30,062 t among the 417 ro-pax ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 913.0 kg CO₂, 2.0 times the type median of 467.6 kg. It logged 4,588 hours at sea against a median of 4,243 hours for its type that year. 5.5% 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 2018 (100,546 t) and the lowest 2020 (47,326 t). Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 6 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 21.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 2.3% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 8.1%.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 8 MRV reporting years, 5 of 5 vessel particulars and a licensed photograph. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, AIS movements in Norwegian waters, a name history, 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.
