WESER HIGHWAY against its type
Built in 1994, it is 14 years older than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 8,659 gross tonnage it is smaller than 99% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 177 vehicle carriers here under the Panama flag, 24.8% of the 713 on the register. The returns for 2022–2025 all give Panama as port of registry.
Its 6,478 t of CO₂ for 2025 is close to the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 107.3 kg CO₂, 65% below the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 5,228 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 7.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (8,271 t) and the lowest 2025 (6,478 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type was 98 in both 2019 and 2025. Of the 6 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 413 of 423 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 98th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 51.7; this vessel reported 196.4.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 32,976,075 tonne-miles over 60,369 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 10.4% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 14.6% while distance sailed fell 11.5%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 3.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
