(Singapore, 10 February 2020) 

BW LPG announced today that it has exercised an option for the delivery of four
additional LPG dual-fuel engines. With this, BW LPG has committed to retrofit
eight vessels with pioneering propulsion technology.

This announcement follows a press release dated 30 August 2018, where BW LPG
announced a world’s first initiative to retrofit four LPG dual-fuel engines in
its fleet. BW LPG, together with Class (DNV GL), Wärtsilä Gas Solutions and MAN
ES, has since subjected the prototype to rigorous tests successfully, with
performance exceeding expectations. When retrofitting is complete, BW LPG will
reap benefits across many fronts such as fuel cost and voyage efficiencies. Most
importantly, this represents a significant step forward in our efforts at
reducing air emissions. 

The retrofitting of the first four LPG dual-fuel engines into four Very Large
Gas Carriers (VLGCs) is taking place as planned this year. 

Says Anders Onarheim, BW LPG CEO, “As the world’s largest owner and operator of
VLGCs, BW LPG leverages on our scale and deep expertise in maritime shipping to
invest in R&D and implement pioneering technology onboard that will push our
industry towards decarbonization - technology that can be implemented on at
least 50 percent of current global VLGC fleet without the need for dedicated
newbuilding orders.  This is our commitment to sustainable development, which we
pursue while keeping our focus on safe and reliable operations, so that we can
continue to provide industry-leading customer service and generate better
returns for our shareholders.”
