VIKING DESTINY against its type
Built in 2017, it is 9 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 62,105 gross tonnage it is larger than 73% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 62 vehicle carriers here under the Marshall Islands flag, 8.7% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 160 other vessels here, 3 of them vehicle carriers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Majuro as port of registry.
Its 27,734 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 3.9 times the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 339.0 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 5,484 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 3.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (27,734 t) and the lowest 2020 (2,092 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 3 in 2018 to 77 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 327 of 423 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 77th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 51.7; this vessel reported 76.1.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 364,341,566 tonne-miles over 81,818 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 299.9% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 36.8% while distance sailed rose 25.2%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 9.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
