VIKING DRIVE against its type
Built in 2000, it is 8 years older than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 33,831 gross tonnage it is smaller than 95% 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 reported port of registry changed: Singapore (2018–2021), then Majuro (2024–2025).
Its 3,556 t of CO₂ for 2021 is 53% below the median of 7,575 t among the 464 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2021. Per nautical mile it emitted 244.0 kg CO₂, 25% below the type median of 325.8 kg. It logged 1,494 hours at sea against a median of 1,568 hours for its type that year. 1.2% of its 2021 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 4.3%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (20,489 t) and the lowest 2018 (1,370 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 92 in 2019 to 61 in 2021 (lower is more efficient).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2024, 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2021
Position 263 of 429 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 61st percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 57.7; this vessel reported 64.6.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 55,006,343 tonne-miles over 14,570 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2021 was 159.5% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2022, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2020 to 2021, emissions fell 26.2% while distance sailed fell 9.3%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 18.6%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
