First hybrid system-powered LNG tug starts service in Singapore

The tug is equipped with mtu gas engines from Rolls Royce.

JMS Sunshine, the first LNG tug powered by a hybrid system with mtu gas engines has begun operations in Singapore.

The Seatrium-operated 29-metre, 65-tonne bollard pull tug received its mtu gas engines from Rolls Royce.

JMS Sunshine has two 16-cylinder mtu Series 4000M55RN gas engines and the gas regulating unit (GRU) for the harbour tug.

Rolls Royce said the mtu gas engines are well below the limit values of current emission guidelines, such as IMO III, without exhaust gas after treatment.

“The particulate mass is below the detection limit and they emit only small quantities of nitrogen oxides,” Rolls Royce added.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
