Wärtsilä supplies state-of-the-art equipment
According to Wärtsilä the new, state-of-the-art equipment will extend the lifecycle of the installation. As the existing 30-year-old equipment is replaced with the new products, the vessel‘s environmental footprint is considerably reduced. The Wärtsilä equipment complies with the most stringent environmental regulations. The Finnish company will provide technical support to the yard. This includes the equipment installation and systems integration phase as well as in the on-site commissioning and sea trials to ensure that all systems perform optimally.
