TYCHO BRAHE against its type

Built in 1991, it is 9 years older than the median ro-pax ship on this register, which was built in 2000 (483 vessels with a known build year). At 11,148 gross tonnage it is smaller than 74% of the other 470 ro-pax ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 29 ro-pax ships here under the Denmark flag, 5.9% of the 493 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 3 other vessels here, 2 of them ro-pax ships. Scandlines is linked to 4 vessels on this register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Helsingör as port of registry.

Its 3,386 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 89% 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 80.4 kg CO₂, 83% below the type median of 467.6 kg. It logged 4,989 hours at sea against a median of 4,243 hours for its type that year. 30.3% 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 2020 (11,284 t) and the lowest 2024 (2,753 t). The one sister ship listed below with a 2025 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 66.2% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 23.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 27.3%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
