MSC Group’s cruise brand MSC Cruises is set to carry out a naming ceremony for its new green cruise flagship, MSC Euribia, on 8 June in Copenhagen, Denmark.
MSC Euribia will become the brand’s second ship to operate on liquefied natural gas (LNG), which is anticipated to lower CO emissions by up to 25% compared to standard fuels.
It is also said to virtually remove other air emissions.
According to the cruise line, emissions from the new green cruise ship will be reduced further when bio and synthetic fuels are made available.
The vessel will also be equipped with modern environmental systems, such as the ‘Baltic Standard’ advanced on-board wastewater treatment system and waste management handling.
To minimise the effects of vibrations on marine life, it will use an underwater radiated noise management system.
