Excellence Counts!GE has been providing marine gas turbines since the 1950s and has amassed extensive experience serving military and commercial ship applications. GE offers a wide range of engine sizes, unmatched support and service, and continual infusion of new technologies to meet customer needs.

Our marine gas turbines provide superior availability for diverse military applications including United States Navy shock tested designs and lower shock requirements. These reliable engines are ideal for military ships ranging from 200 to 60,000 tons displacement with applications on patrol boats, corvettes, frigates, destroyers and cruisers, aircraft carriers, amphibious warfare ships as well as supply and sealift ships.

GE marine gas turbines also have been used on commercial ships since the 1990s. The capability to burn a wide variety of fuels with a compact footprint, and the ability to meet existing and proposed environmental regulations make GE marine gas turbines ideal for LNG tankers, power barges, cruise ships and fast ferries. Our COmbined Gas turbine Electric and Steam, or COGES system, has the lowest annual operating cost of any propulsion system.

The LM marine gas turbine family shares an extensive pedigree with GE’s reliable military and commercial aircraft engines. There are over 3,500 gas turbines operating worldwide, logging more than 110 million hours in power generation and oil & gas settings.

New Exhaust Heat Recovery Cycle

*US and foreign patents issued and pending

Heat Engine Module

Exhaust Energy Recovery Cycle

Coupling a GE exhaust heat recovery system with a diesel or gas turbine propulsion system can enhance system efficiency to ~50%.

• GE has partnered with Echogen Power Systems to offer their technology to the marine market

• Closed loop system uses CO₂ as the working fluid to convert exhaust energy into electricity

• Properties of CO₂ provide for a smaller, more efficient and cost-effective waste heat recovery system

• System works efficiently with exhaust gas supplied by either gas turbines or diesels with exhaust temperature ranging from 240°C to 600°C (464°F to 1112°F)

These systems are available with outputs of 8.0 MW (shown above on test) and 1.5 MW

COGES: COmbined Gas turbine Electric and Steam turbine propulsion system for LNG tankers, container ships, ferries, cruise ships and other commercial ships

Benefits:• Compact, lightweight design offers more room for cargo or

passengers• Low emissions to meet regulations without exhaust treatment –

over $1 million/year savings over 20 years*• Fuel flexible operating on LNG, LPG or liquid fuel• Demonstrated 99% reliability• On-condition maintenance for more time between overhauls –

50,000 hours or longer*compared to scrubber with HFO burning option

Examples of Gas Turbine Based Marine CyclesPropulsion plant architecture and prime mover selection is largely based upon the ship’s mission and operating profile (i.e., time spent at various power levels) as well as the maximum speed. Other important design considerations include cost, reliability and maintainability, shock, and noise signature. To those ends, GE has successfully integrated its marine gas turbines across a wide array of architectures such as the cycle diagrams depicted below.

The ROK Navy took delivery of the 220 ton patrol boat in October 2017. The ship can attain speeds over 40 knots, and is powered by two 4.6 MW LM500 engines. The engine and package is provided by GE Marine in partnership with Hanwha Techwin.

The PKX-B propulsion system realized a 45% reduction in size and weight from its PKX-A predecessor by optimizing the package and gas turbine auxiliary systems, to include an electric start system.
