Wärtsilä will supply 54 dual-fuel engines for the 172,600m3 ice-class LNG ship built by Daewoo Shipbuilding.
South Korea's Daewoo Shipbuilding & Ocean Engineering Co., Ltd. has ordered a total of 54 Wärtsilä dual-fuel engines for the 172,600 cubic meters of ice-class LNG vessels under construction in the Arctic conditions. The series of LNG vessels is owned by a joint venture between Teekay LNG Partners of Canada and China National LNG Transportation (CLNG), and a joint venture between China LNG Transportation Investment Co., Ltd. (CSLNG) and Japan Merchant Marine Mitsui.
These dual-fuel engines were ordered by Daewoo Shipbuilding Marine in October to Wärtsilä Modern Engines (WHEC), a joint venture of Wärtsilä in South Korea.
Although the Wärtsilä dual-fuel engine is capable of burning liquefied natural gas (LNG), heavy oil (HFO), or low viscosity marine diesel (MDO), it mainly burns liquefied natural gas. When operating in Arctic waters, these engines operate at temperatures as low as minus 50 degrees Celsius on LNG ships, and icebreakers will exceed 2 meters in thickness, helping to change engine load for a limited time in various operating modes. The ability of Wärtsilä's dual-fuel engines to meet these stringent current standards is a key factor in the contract.
Wärtsilä will supply 12- and 9-cylinder W?rtsil? 50DF dual-fuel engines for each LNG icebreaker. Wärtsilä's total engine power for each LNG icebreaker is 64,350 kW.
In 2006, Wärtsilä's 50DF engine became a trend for LNG carrier operators, and 65% of new LNG ships chose to use Wärtsilä dual-fuel engines. This type of dual-fuel engine has obvious advantages in terms of propulsion efficiency and environmental protection compared to conventional engines. To date, Wärtsilä has supplied the Wärtsilä 50DF dual fuel engine to more than 160 vessels.
