Sept 6 (LNGJ) - Rolls-Royce has launched its latest in a series of liquefied natural gas-fuelled marine engines at the international maritime exhibition in the German port city of Hamburg. The company said power output of the LNG-fuelled B36:45 engine is identical to that of the liquid-fuelled B33:45 at 600kW per cylinder at 750 revs per minute. “This new engine builds on the success of the Bergen B35:40-series engine and offers a variety of new benefits to our customers, including rapid response to changes in load and speed, high reliability and clean burning,” said Kjell Harloff, Senior Vice President for Rolls-Royce Commercial Marine Engines.
