The new engine management concept (EMC) contract is for the maintenance of the Oak Spirit, Creole Spirit and Torben Spirit – three sister vessel from Teekay’s 173 400 m3 LNG carrier series – and will run for over 10 years. The agreement covers the provision of spare parts, maintenance management, and the servicing of each vessel’s 2 x 5G70ME-GI (gas injection) dual-fuel main engines.
Jeffrey Ang, Head of CoC – Engines & Marine Systems, Asia Pacific – MAN Diesel & Turbo, said: “This agreement is significant in that it is the first market agreement that PrimeServ has clinched involving our dual-fuel, two-stroke ME-GI engines. Furthermore, with Teekay nominating us as their preferred service provider, this contract will undoubtedly add momentum to our efforts to expand the EMC’s reach within the gas-engine segment.”
Under the terms of the contract, MAN Diesel & Turbo, Copenhagen will provide maintenance management and spare parts, whilst MAN Diesel & Turbo, Shanghai will be responsible for the service provision of the engines.
