Wärtsilä, through its joint venture company CWEC, was selected as a supplier to deliver four Wärtsilä 34DF dual-fuel auxiliary engines for the sixth and final vessel in a series of six newbuild 175,000 m3 LNG carrier vessels.
According to the company, the Wärtsilä 34DF engine, together with the Wärtsilä greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction package, was selected to deliver both higher performance and lower emissions.
These LNG carriers are being built at the Jiangnan Shipyard in China for ADNOC Logistics & Services. Wärtsilä will deliver a similar scope of solutions to the other five vessels in the series.
The Wärtsilä 34DF engine will help ADNOC Logistics & Services’ LNG carriers in reducing energy consumption, fewer emissions, and lower operating costs, and when operating on LNG has minimised methane slip.
