VIKING GRACE against its type
Built in 2013, it is 13 years newer than the median ro-pax ship on this register, which was built in 2000 (483 vessels with a known build year). At 57,565 gross tonnage it is larger than 97% of the other 470 ro-pax ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 18 ro-pax ships here under the Finland flag, 3.7% of the 493 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 7 other vessels here, 4 of them ro-pax ships. Viking Line is linked to 4 vessels on this register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Mariehamn as port of registry.
Its 45,932 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.5 times the median of 30,062 t among the 417 ro-pax ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 385.3 kg CO₂, 18% below the type median of 467.6 kg. It logged 7,642 hours at sea against a median of 4,243 hours for its type that year. 4.0% 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 2022 (56,349 t) and the lowest 2020 (42,285 t). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 6.0% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 4.8% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 4.8%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
