Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) in Houston last week brought together stakeholders from across the maritime value chain to discuss the technologies and strategies shaping the future of shipping.
As part of the programme, WinGD Ltd.’s Carmelo Cartalemi joined the technology panel at the Lloyd's Register Global LNG Forum, where discussions focused heavily on methane slip.
From the four-stroke “bad boys” to the latest generation of two-stroke concepts, the progress being made to reduce methane slip is significant. Combined with ongoing advances in fuel efficiency, today’s LNG-fuelled engines will continue to play an important role in supporting the industry’s energy transition in the years ahead.
🤝Innovation in low-carbon technologies was also firmly in focus throughout the week. One message was clear: clean-fuel technologies are advancing ahead of fuel availability and demand. This creates further opportunity for development, refinement and collaboration as infrastructure and adoption continue to grow.

⚓🌍Clarity in a Complex Fuel Landscape

The energy transition presents more options than ever - but less certainty.
The maritime energy transition is being shaped by tightening regulation, evolving fuel availability, and long asset lifecycles.
đź§For shipowners, the challenge is not only selecting a fuel pathway, but ensuring decisions made today remain robust over time.
Among the available options, LNG provides a practical and proven solution, supporting reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) intensity while combining regulatory compliance today with the flexibility to adapt as fuel pathways develop.
At WinGD, propulsion is approached as a portfolio, aligning technologies with vessel requirements, operational profiles, and long-term strategy.

As the industry moves closer to IMO 2030 targets, the role of retrofit solutions remains firmly in focus.
WinGD Ltd.’s whitepaper “LNG-Fuelled Fleets Reducing Emissions: VCR retrofitting as a ready solution” sets out how LNG-fuelled vessels can achieve near-term emissions reductions through Variable Compression Ratio (VCR) retrofitting.
✍ The paper explores how VCR technology improves fuel efficiency and reduces methane slip across real-world operating profiles, without adding operational complexity or requiring changes to fuel strategy.
A practical, proven approach for owners looking to make measurable progress towards compliance.

WinGD Ltd. is featured in an article from ship.energy "MEPC 84 EXPECTATIONS:Â Engine manufacturers have their say" where our CEO, Dominik Schneiter, shares his view on what the industry needs next.
🗣️ “The idealistic scenario is that MEPC 84 agrees to hold a vote in November on an NZF draft that includes GHG pricing and a robust zero or near-zero emissions fuel reward based on real emissions measurements. This will give the signals needed by fuel producers, technology developers and ship owners to accelerate their decarbonisation trajectories.”
While recognising that outcomes may be more incremental, we continue to support the development of frameworks that create real incentives for emissions reduction and enable meaningful progress across the maritime value chain.

Momentum continued at Sea Japan last week as WinGD Ltd. connected with partners and industry peers at the Swiss Pavilion Reception, hosted by Ambassador Roger Dubach, in Tokyo.
Alongside our presence at the Swiss Pavilion, the week provided a valuable opportunity to reconnect with long-standing partners and build fresh momentum around the future of shipping.
🗣️ Speaking at the Swiss Pavilion Reception, Dominik Schneiter, CEO, WinGD said:
“The future of shipping is being written right now — in the choices we make on propulsion, on fuel, on sustainability. It will not be written by any one company or any one country. It will be written by partnerships.”

📽️ In our latest WinGD Xpert episode, Leif Knipstrom, Senior Product Manager Diesel/Methanol explains the versatility of the X-DF-M/E engine platform.
From a dual-fuel setup, running on ethanol with diesel backup, to a tri-fuel configuration that allows operation on ethanol, methanol, or any blend of the two, the flexibility is built in.
This means operators can freely choose the most available or suitable fuel at any given time, without compromising performance.
The result: greater fuel flexibility and operational efficiency, supporting the transition to low-carbon fuels.
