Total SE will supply roughly 45,000 tons per year of liquefied natural gas to Switzerland-based MSC Cruises, the two companies said Thursday.

The natural gas provided by the French oil-and-gas company will be used for coming LNG-powered cruise ships, they said.

"Used as a marine fuel, LNG sharply reduces emissions from ships, resulting in a significant improvement in air quality, particularly for communities in coastal areas and port cities," they said.
