An order last autumn for a 153,000m~3 LNG tanker by Oaz de France at ALSTOM Chantiers de l'Atlantique has brought another success for Wartsila in its penetration of this market. The ship, due for delivery in 2005, will be fitted with a dual-fuel diesel-electric propulsion system, in which one 6-cylinder Wartsila 50DF and three 12-cylinder engines will form the heart of the machinery installation. These four dual-fuel engines have a combined output of 39.9MW. The ship will be the largest LNG carrier yet ordered, and will be employed in importing liquefied natural gas (LNG) from either Norway or Egypt, but is also designed for alternative trading on the spot market.
