Mihai Samoila, Principal Engineer – Machinery & Piping recently participated in the WinGD X-DF Engine Demonstration organised by Winterthur Gas & Diesel at the Wärtsilä testing facility in Trieste, Italy. The event consisted of a presentation of the X-DF Technology and a test engine demonstration in which various operating conditions were simulated: operation on diesel oil mode, operation on gas mode and switching between the two modes at different loading values. ICE participates in such events to make sure it stays up-to-date on dual fuel engine technology, which is in increasing demand as owners look to ways to respond to the newest IMO emission regulations.
