About the event:
Come join us on Thu May 22 2025 at 6:30 PM for an exciting evening filled with discussions and insights into ammonia engines and fuels. The event will be held at We Desi –Indian Bistro, a cozy and welcoming venue perfect for networking and learning.
Whether you're a seasoned professional in the industry or just curious about the latest developments in ammonia technology, this event is perfect for you. Join us for engaging conversations, informative presentations, and of course, delicious food!
There will be two talks during the evening exploring Ammonia use in maritime with knowledge sharing from the engine manufacturer and from Classification Society.
Don't miss out on this opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and expand your knowledge on ammonia engines and fuels. See you there!
Talk No:1 . "Ammonia X-DF Development, Latest Updates, Portfolio, Orders and Results"
by Lars Hansen, WIN. GD
Abstract
Swiss marine power company WinGD has confirmed key parameters for its X-DF-A ammonia-fuelled engine design after full-load testing at its Engine Research and Innovation Centre in Winterthur, Switzerland. The performance and emission measurements deliver timely assurance as the first users prepare their vessels and auxiliary systems for ammonia fuel.
The tests confirm engine performance data that WinGD has published in its General Technical Data (GTD) software, available online, and guaranteed to customers. Operation on ammonia achieved the same thermal efficiency as for diesel fuel, with pilot oil consumption at the targeted 5% of overall fuel consumption at full load.
Emissions data was also encouraging, with ammonia emissions below 10ppm and N2O below 3ppm. NOx emissions for ammonia operation were well below those generated during diesel use. Crucially, the low emissions were achieved without the use of exhaust gas after-treatment, allowing WinGD to confirm that no ammonia slip catalyst (ASC) will be needed to operate the engine with ammonia fuel.
Talk No:2. "Safe decarbonisation : Ammonia"
by Liam Blackmore , LLoyd's Register
Abstract
Tensions exist between environmental goals, safety, and technological readiness for the use of ammonia as a fuel. This presentations explores the safe implementation of ammonia as a fuel while meeting the IMO net-zero regulations for global shipping.
