JOINING THE GROWING FLEET OF
GAS TURBINE POWERED CRUISE SHIPS
V^ONGRATULATIONS TO ROYAL CARIBBEAN INTERNA-
TIONAL ON ITS FIRST GAS TURBINE POWERED SHIP.
RCI JOINS ITS SISTER COMPANY, CELEBRITY CRUISES,
IN FEATURING GAS TURBINES. THESE NEW VESSELS
INCORPORATE THE SAME TECHNOLOGY AS THE WORLD'S
MOST RELIABLE AIRCRAFT AND MILITARY SHIPS. GE
LM2500+ GAS TURBINE ENGINES ARE CLEANER, QUIETER
AND MORE RELIABLE THAN THEIR DIESEL ENGINE
COUNTERPARTS. THEY ALSO REQUIRE LESS SPACE,
RESULTING IN SIGNIFICANTLY MORE ROOM FOR PASSEN-
GER AND CREW ACCOMMODATIONS. ENVIRONMENTAL
ADVANTAGES INCLUDE THE ELIMINATION OF SLUDGE
DISPOSAL AND LOWER SOX, NOX AND PARTICULATE
LEVELS. IMAGINE A WORLD WHERE ALL CRUISE SHIPS
USED GE GAS TURBINES. NOW YOU'RE SAILING. S&S Energy Products
