Engine Retrofits & Upgrades

Tailored solutions for existing WinGD engines to extend vessel compliance, maintain peak performance and reduce operating costs.

WinGD provides a one-stop-shop for fuel conversions and energy efficiency upgrades for its engines already in service.

By focusing on optimising the efficiency of existing engines and adapting them to lower carbon fuels, operators can both reduce operating costs and extend the viable life of their current fleet – ensuring that today’s vessels remain compliant and competitive. WinGD provides a one-stop-shop for fuel conversions and energy efficiency upgrades for its engines already in service.

WinGD engines are designed to be upgradable, with a modular design approach and a common base platform across engines for all fuel types. Similarly, WinGD control, monitoring, emissions abatement and efficiency technologies are designed for both existing and new engines.

With retrofit-ready engines and upgrade solutions from the same original designer, WinGD leverages its unique product expertise and existing supplier and project partner network to significantly reduce the cost and duration of your upgrade or retrofit.

 

Variable Compression Ratio (VCR) technology

 

Intelligent Control by Exhaust Recycling (iCER) technology

 

 

 

Upgrades offered include:

Injection system retrofits 
Turn a single- fuel diesel engine into an LNG, methanol or ammonia dual- fuel engine.

X-DF2.0 upgrades
Add iCER and/or VCR technology to existing X-DF LNG fuelled engines for enhanced diesel and gas mode efficiency and lower methane slip.

Engine derating 
Increase engine efficiency by reducing maximum power output and thus lower the specific fuel consumption.

X-EL Energy Management System retrofits 
Boost operational flexibility, improve your EEXI figures, reduce fuel consumption and emissions with installation of shaft generators, battery packs, DC bus components and WinGD’s advanced energy 
management system.

Digital optimisation 
Install our WiDE integrated digital expert on any WinGD engine for higher engine efficiency, condition-based maintenance and remote troubleshooting support by WinGD experts.

Engine control system update 
Upgrade to the latest cyber security standards and enable advanced tunings, control functionalities and extended auxiliary system compatibility with WinGD integrated Control Electronics.

Lubrication system upgrades 
Reduce oil consumption with the latest WinGD tribology concepts, including cylinder lube, and high-pressure crosshead lubrication oil systems.

Advanced engine tuning upgrades 
Re-tune the engine to optimise the combustion process based on principles applied on newer engine types and improve efficiency while 
complying with Tier-2/Tier-3 limits.
