Winterthur Gas & Diesel (WinGD), headquartered in Switzerland, said WinGD’s latest generation of X72DF-2.1 engines will power 25 vessels as part of the QatarEnergy’s North Field East (NFE) project, the biggest LNG carrier newbuilding project in history.
German marine engine maker MAN Energy Solutions, a supplier of propulsion for many of the world’s LNG-powered vessels as well as the most modern LNG carriers, said its two-stroke, dual-fuel portfolio has now logged more than 500,000 operational hours.
