Be future-fuel-ready with the MAN 35/44 CD GenSet
In the container ship industry, the trend towards sustainable fuels is intensifying. Stricter environmental regulations are driving extensive research into future fuels. Still it remains challenging to predict which future fuels, such as methanol, will prevail.
To minimize risks for shipowners, merchant marines, shipyards, and design institutes, we have developed the future-fuel-ready MAN 35/44 CD. This genset operates with conventional fuels but can easily be retrofitted to accomodate the environmentally-friendly fuels of the future.


The MAN 35/44 CD keeps you ahead of the competition
The future-ready modular system of the MAN 35/44 CD provides a strong edge by offering more flexible upgrading possibilities than traditional engines. It allows for the optimization of CAPEX and OPEX and offers adaptability to upgrade to LNG dual fuel, methanol, or even ammonia use in the future. The MAN 35/44 CD is a sustainable choice for container ships, offering low initial costs.
