Starting in 2020, shipping company CMA CGM will take delivery of nine container ships with a record-setting capacity. The global leader has chosen to equip them with LNG propulsion, easily the cleanest solution in the market today. It therefore turned to Total and its subsidiary Total Marine Fuels Global Solutions, which will supply the 300,000 tons of LNG a year needed to power these behemoths of the sea, each able to carry 22,000 containers.
In doing so, the partners are taking a giant step forward in terms of environmental protection: marine LNG has significant advantages over ordinary fuel oil.
