29JAN2019 - NEWS - Caterpillar Marine unveils its first LNG test bed for gas fuelled engines at its facility in Kiel, Germany

Caterpillar Marine has recently unveiled its first liquefied natural gas (LNG) test bed for gas-fueled engines at its facility in Kiel, Germany. The LNG preparation unit consists of an LNG tank and a gas preparation unit, both in 40 ft. container size and both developed and provided by Marine Service GmbH, Hamburg. LNG solutions have great potential and Caterpillar is working to perfect the technology at its new Kiel test bed, but there’s still a lot to learn about LNG and the engineering required to maximize its potential. With its Kiel location, Caterpillar said will improve its understanding of the technology and enhance the service it provides to clients adopting LNG.
