Industry task force wins double AiP for ammonia-fueled containership design

ammonia-fueled containership

A design for an ammonia-fueled containership has been awarded Approval in Principle by classification societies ABS and Lloyd’s Register (LR). The design has been developed by a cross-industry task force led by the Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping and whose other members include A. P. Møller-Mærsk, MAN Energy Solutions, Deltamarin, Eltronic FuelTech, and the two classification societies.

The design outlines a commercially viable and safe ammonia-fueled 3,500 TEU container...

Wärtsilä in ammonia-fueled four-stroke first

Wärtsilä has brought to market the marine sector’s first four-stroke engine based solution for ammonia fuel. It is now commercially available as part of the Wärtsilä 25 engine platform, which was launched in September 2022. The first shipowner set to benefit from the ammonia-fueled four-stroke solution is Norway’s Viridis Bulk Carriers, the zero emission shipping partnership between Amon Maritime, Mosvolds Rederi and Navigare Logistics. Earlier this month, Wärtsilä and Viridis Bulk Carriers...

WinGD wins LR approval in principle for ammonia-fueled two-stroke engines

As the race to be first to market with future-fueled engines picks up pace, Lloyd’s Register has granted Winterthur, Switzerland, headquartered engine designer WinGD the first ever approval in principle (AiP) for its ammonia-fueled two­­‑stroke engines. The AiP was awarded for WinGD’s X-DF-A dual-fuel range and gives shipowners the assurances they need to realize vessel designs using ammonia-fueled main engines.

WinGD says that its ammonia-fueled two-stroke engine series research has been...
