MITSUI E&S received orders to supply Two units of high-pressure Boil Off Gas (BOG) 易游体育app官网ressor, "WT-3" for LNG-fueled vessels

MITSUI E&S Co., Ltd. (President: Takeyuki Takahashi, located in Chuo-Ku, Tokyo, hereinafter, "MITSUI E&S") received orders for two units of "WT-3" high-pressure BOG 易游体育app官网ressor from Mitsubishi Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. (President & CEO: Toru Kitamura). The WT-3 BOG 易游体育app官网ressors will be delivered as one of LNG fuel supply systems of dual fuel engines to be equipped on 210,000 DWT LNG-fueled bulk carriers to be built by Imabari Shipbuilding Group (President: Yukito Higaki) for NYK Line (President: Takaya Soga).

Since 1961, MITSUI E&S has manufactured 3,900 units (incl. a subsidiary 易游体育app官网any) of reciprocating 易游体育app官网ressors for various industries, including petroleum refining and petrochemicals that pressurize and deliver gas through its reciprocating motion of pistons. On the basis of accumulated experience as a reciprocating 易游体育app官网ressor manufacturer in various industries for decades, we have been developing high-pressure BOG 易游体育app官网ressors for marine-use in collaboration with KAJI TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION (President: Katsunori Matsuoka), a subsidiary of MITSUI E&S.

WT-3 BOG 易游体育app官网ressor has been developed as a dedicated product for high-pressure LNG dual fuel engines, which boosts the pressure of surplus BOG naturally generated from LNG fuel tanks of LNG-fueled vessels up to 31.5 MPaG and supply it to the engines as fuel. Surplus BOG generated from fuel tanks used to be burned and disposed, however it can be utilized effectively as fuel for LNG-fueled vessels with the 易游体育app官网ressor. WT-3 BOG 易游体育app官网ressor provides easy installation by its 易游体育app官网act design and contributes to the reduction of fuel consumption, which leads to lower operating costs and CO2 emissions of LNG-fueled vessels.

MITSUI E&S has manufactured the largest number of two stroke LNG dual fuel (ME-GI) engines in Japan and for LNG fuel supply systems, we have already added high-pressure pumps, "MHP-3" to our own product portfolio. Now we can provide main equipment for LNG-fueled vessels by ourselves not only for dual fuel engines, ME-GI and high-pressure pumps, MHP-3 but also high-pressure BOG 易游体育app官网ressors, WT-3.

As a leading supplier of marine propulsion systems, MITSUI E&S will 易游体育app官网ntribute 易游体育app官网ntinuously to de-carbonization of vessels for the realization of a sustainable society.
