This new standardised MTU diesel genset for diesel electric drive and on-board power generation is designed specifically for commercial marine applications, such as offshore supply vessels for wind parks or oil and gas platforms. The genset family consists of a workboat engine taken from the proven MTU Series 4000 “Ironmen”, with a choice of 8, 12 or 16 cylinders, a generator and electronic control system mounted on a rigid base frame and covers a power range from 760 to 2,240 kilowatts.

This wind farm tender, built at the Abeking & Rasmussen yard, is able to moor securely alongside the wind unit platform even in the roughest wave conditions, thanks to its special construction, its electronically controlled stabilising fins and its diesel-electric propulsion plant. Two ten-cylinder MTU Series 2000 M72 engines with a total of 1,800 kW derive their power from a frequency-independent generator, which drives the electromotor via a frequency converter.

After completion in 2011, the 109-metre long offshore construction vessels of the RWE subsidiary RWE Innogy, will be able to transport and erect four wind units of the six megawatt class, including their towers. The output is from a diesel-electric propulsion plant: five generators with 16-cylinder MTU Class 4000 engines. Each engine has a mechanical output of 2,240 kW.
