Wärtsilä Marine LNG conversion

Concern for the marine environment is rising and new measures have been, and will continue to be implemented to protect the oceans and seas. Switching to an environmentally friendly fuel can be considered a way of future-proofing it against tightening regulations. Liquefied natural gas, or LNG, is an attractively priced and sustainable fuel that reduces environmental risks and harmful emissions. Using LNG engines decreases fuel costs while ensuring compliance with increasingly stringent regulations.

Whether a vessel can be converted to operate on LNG depends mainly on the space required by the LNG tanks and additional equipment required. Wärtsilä can manage your project on all aspects from feasibility studies, financing solutions, solution proposals, execution planning and implementation to full EPC solution.
