STENA SUPERFAST VIII against its type
Built in 2001, it is 1 year newer than the median ro-pax ship on this register, which was built in 2000 (483 vessels with a known build year). At 30,285 gross tonnage it is larger than 68% of the other 470 ro-pax ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 19 ro-pax ships here under the United Kingdom flag, 3.9% of the 493 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 32 other vessels here, 5 of them ro-pax ships. The returns for 2018–2020 all give Belfast as port of registry.
Its 46,250 t of CO₂ for 2020 is 1.7 times the median of 27,513 t among the 394 ro-pax ships on this register that reported for 2020. Per nautical mile it emitted 669.1 kg CO₂, 37% above the type median of 490.1 kg. It logged 4,396 hours at sea against a median of 3,524 hours for its type that year. 12.8% of its 2020 emissions were at berth; the median for ro-pax ships was 8.2%. Across 3 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (54,454 t) and the lowest 2020 (46,250 t). The one sister ship listed below with a 2020 return reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2020 was 15.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2019 to 2020, emissions fell 11.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 2.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
