Wartsila to equip Poland’s first LNG-powered RoPax ships

Poland-based Remontowa shipyard has chosen Finland’s Wartsila for the delivery of engines, fuel storage and supply systems for three new RoPax ships.

These are said to be the first liquefied natural gas (LNG)-driven RoPax ships to be constructed for the Polish maritime industry.

With an overall length of 195m, the vessels will be operated by ferry firms Unity Line and Polferries.

They will have 4,100 lane metres for vehicles as well as space to accommodate 400 passengers.

The ships will provide services between the Swedish ports of Ystad and Trelleborg and Swinoujscie, Poland.
