The MAN B&W ME-LGIP (Liquid Gas Injection Propane) engine is a low-speed, two-stroke, dual-fuel engine designed by MAN Energy Solutions to operate on liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in addition to conventional marine fuels like HFO and MDO. It is based on the ME-C platform and uses a liquid-phase LPG injection system directly into the combustion chamber, ensuring precise control, high combustion efficiency, and ultra-low emissions. The ME-LGIP engine produces power in the range of 5,000 kW to over 80,000 kW, depending on the cylinder configuration and bore size, with torque output exceeding 10,000 kNm in large models. It complies with IMO Tier II standards by default and can reach IMO Tier III compliance when equipped with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) or Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) systems. The engine is specifically suited for LPG carriers, ethylene carriers, and other gas-fueled vessels, and is capable of running on both cargo-derived fuel (boil-off gas) and stored LPG, offering operational flexibility, reduced fuel costs, and significantly lower Sox and particulate emissions. Its ability to burn LPG without methane slip makes it an ideal solution for shipowners targeting carbon and GHG reduction while maintaining high propulsion efficiency.
