摘要: Houston-based Caterpillar Marine and Svitzer, a fully-owned subsidiary of A.P. Moller-Maersk that provides towing services around the world, have executed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) aimed at implementing methanol dual-fuel engine solutions throughout Svitzer's fleet of 440 tugboats. According to an announcement from the companies, the partnership will allow Svitzer to power new-build vessels with methanol dual-fuel engines from Caterpillar Marine, while also converting its existing Caterpillar-powered tugs to use both diesel and methanol. Caterpillar Marine previously announced in September 2022 the ability to modify Cat 3500E marine engines to run on methanol as a dual fuel, which offers customers an option for cutting emissions. That ability to use methanol, particularly from renewable energy sources, will help Svitzer meet its de-carbonization goals by 2030 and 2040.
