ME-GI Dual Fuel MAN B&W Engines A Technical, Operational and Cost-effective Solution for Ships Fuelled by Gas
Year: 2014 Language: english Author: MAN Genre: Technical book Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 32 Description: Future fuels for ships are a reality today. The new order for a »Jones Act« gas-fuelled container vessel has set a new standard. A new LNG bunkering station will be built in connection with this order, and other ships will also be allowed access to the LNG. The very low gas price in the US is making it highly attractive to invest in gas-powered ships. Current gas prices offer savings of almost 50% in fuel costs compared with heavy fuel oil (HFO). A comparison with marine gas oil (MGO), which is needed when ships operate in emission control areas (ECAs), makes the investment even better. It is therefore expected that the two container vessels will be operated on gas both inside and outside ECA zones. Therefore, it makes sense to use gas as the fuel for both operational scenarios.
