Holeby first

The first onboard installation of MAN B&W?s L21/31 Holeby genset will not, as expected, be on one of the four DFDS Tor Line roro vessels on order at Flensburg Shipyard. Rather MAN B&W has won a contract to supply a pilot installation of two L21/31 gensets to a ship that will be delivered earlier than the first DFDS vessel, which is due in September 2003. The customer is unwilling to disclose further details according to a MAN B&W Holeby spokesman. The company now has orders for 18 L21/31 gensets.
