MAN Diesel & Turbo’s marine LNG fuel-gas-system manufacturer, MAN Cryo, has announced that it has signed a contract with Sefine Shipyard to deliver a marine LNG fuel-gas supply system (FGSS) to an Italian ferry.
The LNG supply system consists of a 150 m3 vacuum-insulated storage tank, with auxiliary equipment, including an LNG vaporiser, pressure build-up unit, bunker station and heat exchanger.
The system, which is scheduled for delivery in November 2017, will supply gas to the ferry´s three dual-fuel propulsion engines. The vessel will be the first of its kind with LNG propulsion.
The ferry, which will be owned by Caronte & Tourist, will primarily operate on the strait of Messina between Villa San Giovanni and the city of Messina.
