VESTERALEN against its type
Built in 1983, it is 17 years older than the median ro-pax ship on this register, which was built in 2000 (483 vessels with a known build year). At 6,261 gross tonnage it is smaller than 89% 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. Hurtigruten is linked to 12 vessels on this register. The reported port of registry changed: Tromso (2018–2022), then Tromsø (2023–2025).
Its 6,216 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 79% 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 155.6 kg CO₂, 67% below the type median of 467.6 kg. It logged 3,007 hours at sea against a median of 4,243 hours for its type that year. 8.0% 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 (14,255 t) and the lowest 2020 (5,458 t). Of the 7 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.
