Total will bunker MSC Cruises’ LNG-powered ships in Marseille - and along future Mediterranean routes - via ship-to-ship transfer, using its second LNG bunker vessel currently under construction.
Reducing MSC Cruises' environmental footprint
‘As we prepare to launch our first of three upcoming LNG-powered cruise ships in 2022, through this key agreement we have now secured the refuelling support for our latest-generation and most environmentally advanced ships in the Mediterranean,’ commented Pierfrancesco Vago, executive chairman, MSC Cruises.
‘This agreement represents a further step in our ongoing journey towards continuously reducing our environmental footprint, for which LNG is currently a crucial component.’
Fuel cell technology
The first LNG-powered fuel cell is set to be fitted on MSC Europa.
