MAN Energy Solutions has won an order for four dual-fuel MAN B&W 6S60ME-GI engines for the construction of two 8,000-lane-meter hybrid Ro-Ro vessels for CLdN. Each vessel will also be equipped with 2 × 6 MW electric propulsion motors, enabling the vessel to maintain a service speed of 16-17 knots in all-electric mode. The newbuildings will further reduce carbon intensity by 40% while meeting NOx Tier III standards. Human energy solutions. The ME-GI (-Gas Injection) engine sets a new industry standard for two-stroke propulsion engines on ro-ro, PCTC, container ships, bulk carriers, tankers and LNG carriers.

ME-Gi engines deliver the industry's lowest CO2 and methane leak emissions for LNG-fueled ships. The diesel principle ensures 100% reliable operation during gas load changes with only the normal amount of pilot oil added.

Nauticus Robotics Inc. has announced the initial production run of the Nauticus Fleet, a robotic navy of 20 pairs of Hydronaut - Aquanaut. These tandem pairs will be deployed in multiple offshore industries, serving applications ranging from subsea maintenance and intervention to data collection. The first robots will be delivered in the fourth quarter of 2022, and the rest will be delivered by the end of 2024.

The construction and production of large steam turbines, diesel engines and centrifugal pumps is a technical, technological and scientific challenge that only large or developed countries can afford, such as Yugoslavia in 1949, 1954 and later was not. This means that the effort, enthusiasm and knowledge of the employed engineers and technicians was significantly above the Yugoslavia's average.
In order to construct a steam turbine, it is necessary to know the calculations of thermodynamics, material strength, theory...
Various experts participated in the development of turbines, engines, laboratories, for example: prof. Ernest Kraft, A. Ošlag, J. Bašić, S. Todorovski, prof. M. Mikulić, ing. I. Gojak, ing. I. Tudić...

Low routine maintenance schedule (MAN)

Written by

'When it comes to low routine maintenance schedule, MAN L28/32 offers a great advantage with 20,000 hours between overhauls when operated on HFO. A low level of deformation and a low level of mechanical stresses (i.e. low wear-rates) are achieved through its sturdy engine structure and amply dimensioned running gear.'
