Among the applications for

Wartsila diesels are main engines in ships for both geared and diesel-electric propulsion, auxil- iary engines for vessels, and gen- erator systems for stationary power plants. The Vasa 32 pro- vides an excellent combination as both main and auxiliary engine in the same ship, such as in car/ passenger ferries. This provides simplified maintenance routines and the advantage that all the engines can be operated on bunk- er oil.

The Nohab F30 is widely used in offshore vessels, and more than one million bhp is presently in operation on such vessels and on oil rigs.

The Wartsila Diesel Division recently set up a completely new engine factory in Singapore, in partnership with Keppel Ship- yard. To be known as Wartsila
