Dual-fuel standby duo goes to work in Hong Kong

Robert Allan Ltd. reports that a pair of of dual fuel (diesel and LNG) standby vessels built to its RAstar 4200-DF design recently entered service with Hongkong Salvage & Towage (HKST). Built by Cheoy Lee Shipyards, the vessels, the LNG Sentinel I and LNG Sentinel II, were specifically designed for service at the Hong Kong LNG Terminal Limited (HKLTL) import terminal.

The standby vessels feature an electrical propulsion system with Z-drives that can receive power from both diesel and dual fuel...

Cat to deploy methanol dual-fuel 3500E marine engines in 2026

Caterpillar Marine reports that it has made significant advances in the development of its methanol dual-fuel Cat 3500E marine engines. Under a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Damen Shipyards, it will deploy the first set of field demonstrator 3500E marine engines in 2026.

The Cat 3500E marine engines will use innovative dual-fuel technology based on proven diesel fuel systems that will supports vessels’ low-pressure – below 10 bar – fuel systems.

The methanol dual-fuel Cat 3500E engine...

Advancing Dual-Fuel Shipbuilding with Certified Methanol Valves

  • Methanol is integral to the green transition in maritime industries, along with advanced vent and valve systems for methanol tanks.
  •  Recently, a series of high-velocity methanol valves produced in Denmark received certification for the first time. 
  • This certification provides shipbuilders with greater flexibility in constructing dual-fuel systems with extended vent pipes.
Importance of Valve Systems

Valve systems are crucial for managing pressure and vacuum in methanol tanks, ensuring fire...
