Ltd. shipyard in China and will be owned by a joint venture between Navigator Gas (NYSE: NVGS) and Norway based Amon Maritime. The order was booked by Wärtsilä in Q1 2026. As the shipping industry transitions to decarbonising operations, ammonia is emerging as a carbon free alternative marine fuel. The Wärtsilä systems are designed to operate with ammonia for both the ships’ two-stroke and four-stroke engines, enabling these two vessels to operate with dual-fuel engines capable of running with ammonia. “Wärtsilä Gas Solutions is a market leader in cargo handling and fuel gas supply systems for medium sized gas carrier vessels. This order further strengthens our position and is yet another proof point of executing our strategy focused on shaping the decarbonisation of marine”, commented Hans Jakob Buvarp, Sales Manager, Wärtsilä Gas Solutions.
