EGR systems has received a contract from Norway-based Knutsen OAS Shipping to supply four MAN B&W 5G70ME-GI engines for its two new 180,000m³ liquefied natural gas (LNG) tankers.

The G70ME-GI engine gives an advantage to the ship owners and operators by facilitating the vessel's ability to run on either heavy fuel oil (HFO) or a gas-based fuel, predominantly natural gas.

Shipping service provider DFDS has placed an order with Chinese shipyard Jinling for two 6,700 lane meter load capacity roll-on / roll-off (RoRo) vessels, which follows an earlier order for two RoRo ships in 2016.

The four RoRo ships are set to be delivered in 2019 and early-2020, and will be deployed to serve freight customers across the North Sea.

The new ships will feature a scrubber and ballast water treatment system, advanced ramp system, and energy-enhancing initiatives for environmentally friendly operation.
