Stavangerfjord and sister vessel Bergenfjord, built at Bergen Fosen shipyard, will be the first international service passenger ferries in the world to run on pure LNG engines. Rolls-Royce Marine is supplying the four Bergen gas engines for each vessel, which will power energy efficient Promas integrated rudder and propeller propulsion systems, also supplied by R-R, in dual screw configuration.
Separately, Promas Lite - a retrofit version of the integrated rudder and propeller system, which by itself R-R claims can offer 4-6% fuel savings – was selected by Aida Cruises for one of its vessels this week.
