It comes following a long term agreement between the operator and Titan LNG for the supply of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied bio methane (LBM) to power the two LNG-fuelled hybrid Ro-Pax vessels.
The ferries will serve established routes connecting Portsmouth with Saint Malo and Ouistreham. Titan aims to supply fuel to both vessels during usual cargo operations to avoid delays to sailing schedules.
The two 194.7 metre, 1,400-passenger LNG-hybrid ships will join the fleet in 2024 and 2025 replacing two of the longest-serving vessels, Bretagne and Normandie.
They will follow two new LNG-fuelled ships, Salamanca, which entered service in March this year, and Santona which will arrive on fleet in 2023.
Regine Portocarero, Titan LNG’s business development manager, said: "We look forward to our journey forward with Brittany Ferries and these innovative ships.
"We believe strong partnerships are essential for the maritime industry to successfully decarbonise. Furthermore, thanks to the unique farmer-shareholder ownership structure that underpins Brittany Ferries we see great potential in available stocks for local LBM production."
