MSC World Europa represents a significant step forward on our journey towards net-zero emissions by 2050 by featuring a range of unprecedented environmental and marine technologies. As we look ahead to using synthetic LNG or other non-carbon fuels once they become available at scale, LNG is not only the cleanest marine fuel currently available at scale, but also a transitional fuel.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>MSC World Europa was refueled with 2 500 m3 of LNG by TotalEnergies&#8217; chartered LNG bunker barge, the Gas Vitality, on April 22. In March 2021, TotalEnergies and MSC Group announced an LNG bunker supply contract between the two companies. As a result of the agreement, TotalEnergies Marine Fuels will provide MSC Cruises with about 45,000 tons of LNG per year.<\/p>\n<p>As a local LNG bunker hub in the Mediterranean region, TotalEnergies is pleased to support the Cruise Division of MSC Group&#8217;s decarbonization journey.<\/p>\n<p>Besides expanding our LNG bunkering capabilities to the cruise ship segment, this operation demonstrates our ability to serve a broader range of shipping clients as the industry strives to reduce emissions. &#8220;To meet TotalEnergies&#8217; Climate ambition, we will work with our industry partners on developing and scaling up new, lower-carbon, and ultimately zero-carbon fuel solutions for shipping.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TotalEnergies Marine Fuels
