Caterpillar-Bolier MaK Dual-Fuel Retrofit Completed in Six Weeks

A collaborative effort between Caterpillar Marine and Cat dealer Bolier, has resulted in the conversion of a ship engine from an existing 6M43C engine to a 6-cylinder M46 Dual-Fuel platform, onboard the Coral Anthelia. The project was commissioned by Anthony Veder, a Netherlands-based specialist gas transporter. As a result of performing the retrofit within the hull, no modifications had to be done to the ship’s structure and no docking was required.
