VISBORG against its type
Built in 2003, it is 3 years newer than the median ro-pax ship on this register, which was built in 2000 (483 vessels with a known build year). At 29,746 gross tonnage it is larger than 66% of the other 470 ro-pax ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 4 ro-pax ships here under the Malta flag, 0.8% of the 493 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 192 other vessels here, 7 of them ro-pax ships. Destination Gotland is linked to 3 vessels on this register. Its MRV returns name it VISBY for 2018–2020 and VISBORG for 2021–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Visby (2018–2022), then VALLETTA (2023–2025).
Its 36,096 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 20% above the median of 30,062 t among the 417 ro-pax ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 549.1 kg CO₂, 17% above the type median of 467.6 kg. It logged 3,938 hours at sea against a median of 4,243 hours for its type that year. 10.0% 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 (72,977 t) and the lowest 2025 (36,096 t). The one sister ship listed below with a 2025 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 50.5% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 21.9% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 11.7%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
