  A new generation “Antigoon” class dredger, called “Scheldt River”, being built by Royal IHC (IHC) in the Netherlands on behalf of the Belgium based DEME Group, is to be powered by Wärtsilä dual-fuel (DF) engines. This will be the first ever dredger to operate on engines capable of utilising either liquefied natural gas (LNG) or conventional marine fuels. The contract with Wärtsilä was signed in July. The 104 metre long vessel will have a hopper volume capacity of approximately 8,000 cubic metres. The scope of supply includes one 12-cylinder and one 9-cylinder Wärtsilä 34DF engines, two Wärtsilä controllable pitch propellers and two transverse thrusters as well as the company’s patented LNGPac gas supply and storage system. “Wärtsilä’s unmatched experience and extensive reference list in dual-fuel engine applications, plus our complete solutions portfolio, were key considerations in the award of this contract. We congratulate the shipyard and owners for taking the decision to have this new dredger become the first to be capable of using LNG or diesel fuel,” says Lars Anderson, Vice President, Engine Sales, Wärtsilä Marine Solutions. “Environmental considerations are extremely important for every new vessel built today.

  South Korean shipbuilder Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co. announced that it has received an order to build a liquefied natural gas (LNG) carrier from a Greek shipper. The new deal calls for Daewoo to deliver the LNG vessel, able to carry 173,400 cubic meters of natural gas, to the Greek shipowner Chandris by the latter half of 2018.  The financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed. As of end-June, Daewoo was the world's largest shipbuilder by order backlog for eight consecutive months, according to industry data.
