Direct Electric Heating (DEH) is a cost efficient and environmentally sustainable flow assurance method that replaces the use of chemicals. The presence of wax and hydrates in subsea flow lines is a major concern in the offshore industry. Wärtsilä DEH is based on using the thermally insulated flow line as part of the electric circuit, […]
Excellence in electric main propulsion Electric-based main propulsion provides a great deal of freedom in ship design, and ships can be designed much more efficiently without the traditional limits on equipment layout, due to mechanical restrictions. Benefits of electric propulsion : The power can be supplied by any number of generators, which enables high redundancy. […]
