This book contains a reference list of all the ships and other vessels powered by GE Marine gas turbine engines. We update this list periodically.

Spanning more than five decades, GE Marine engines have been at the forefront of marine propulsion for a wide variety of ships in 33 world navies. These ships range from hydrofoils, corvettes, patrol boats, frigates, cruisers, destroyers, and sealift ships to supply ships and aircraft carriers.

Beginning in the 1990s GE Marine engines achieved great success in the commercial passenger shipping arena with applications in yachts, fast ferries and cruise ships.

Today, GE Marine can provide complete power and propulsion systems for both military and commercial ship applications. The ability to burn a wide variety of fuels, their compact size, and the ability to meet proposed environmental regulations make GE Marine aeroderivative gas turbines ideal for LNG tankers, power barges, cruise ships and larger fast ferries.

This booklet contains a brief overview of GE Marine engine products and systems and support services.

While more than 1,400 GE Marine engines have logged more than 14 million operating hours, over 2,800 of the same aeroderivative gas turbines have logged more than 100 million hours in industrial applications such as power generation and oil and gas applications worldwide.

Lessons learned from this vast experience along with the latest advanced engine technology developed for GE’s aircraft engines are shared across the marine, industrial and aircraft engine product lines.

Exhaust Energy Recovery Cycle

Coupling a GE exhaust heat recovery system with yourdiesel or gas turbine propulsion system can greatly enhance your fuel efficiency to ~50%

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

• Closed loop system using CO2 as the workingfluid converts exhaust energy into electricity

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

• The system works efficiently with exhaust gas supplied by either gas turbines or diesels with exhaust temperature ranging from 240°C to 600°C

Three systems are available with outputs of:• 7 MW• 1.5 MW• O.5 MW

Propulsion architecture is based on the power required, the duty cycle, environmental concerns and many other factors. Shown here are a few of the most popular cycles used for ship propulsion employing GE Marine gas turbine engines.
