MAN Diesel & Turbo ME-GI, the Engine of the Future

The ME-GI is MAN Diesel & Turbo’s dual-fuel, two-stroke, gas-injection engine and represents the culmination of many years’ work that began in the 1990s with a prototype engine at a power plant near Tokyo.

A highly efficient, flexible, propulsion-plant solution, the company received its first orders for the new engine in December 2012, including 2 × 2 MAN B&W 5G70ME-GI units for two Teekay LNG carriers, with an option for three further ships.
