Project Support and Documentation
The selection of the ideal propulsion plant for a
specific newbuilding is a comprehensive task.
However, as this selection is a key factor for the
profitability of the ship, it is of the utmost impor-
tance for the enduser that the right choice is made.
MAN Diesel is able to provide a wide variety of
support for the shipping and shipbuilding indus-
tries all over the world.
The knowledge accumulated over many decades
by MAN Diesel covering such fields as the selec-
tion of the best propulsion machinery, optimisa-
tion of the engine installation, choice and suit-
ability of a Power Take Off for a specific project,
vibration aspects, environmental control etc., is
available to shipowners, shipbuilders and ship de-
signers alike.
Part of this information can be found in the follow-
ing documentation:
• Installation Drawings
• CEAS - Engine Room Dimensioning
• Project Guides
• Extent of Delivery (EOD)
• Technical Papers
The publications are available at:

Engine Selection Guides
The ‘Engine Selection Guides’ are intended as a
tool to provide assistance at the very initial stage
of the project work. The guides give a general
view of the MAN B&W twostroke Programme for
MC as well as for ME engines and include infor-
mation on the following subjects:
• Engine data
• Engine layout and load diagrams
specific fuel oil consumption
• Turbocharger selection
• Electricity production, including power take off
• Installation aspects
• Auxiliary systems
• Vibration aspects.
After selecting the engine type on the basis of
this general information, and after making sure
that the engine fits into the ship’s design, then a
more detailed project can be carried out based
on the ‘Project Guide’ for the specific engine type
selected.
Project Guides
For each engine type of MC or ME design a
‘Project Guide’ has been prepared, describing the
general technical features of that specific engine
type, and also including some optional features
and equipment.
The information is general, and some deviations
may appear in a final engine documentation, de-
pending on the content specified in the contract
and on the individual licensee supplying the en-
gine. The Project Guides comprise an extension
of the general information in the Engine Selection
Guide, as well as specific information on such
subjects as:
• Engine Design
• Engine Layout and Load Diagrams, SFOC
• Turbocharger Selection & Exhaust Gas Bypass
• Electricity Production
• Installation Aspects
• List of Capacities: Pumps, Coolers & Exhaust Gas
• Fuel Oil
• Lubricating Oil
• Cylinder Lubrication
• Piston Rod Stuffing Box Drain Oil
• Central Cooling Water System
• Seawater Cooling
• Starting and Control Air
• Scavenge Air
• Exhaust Gas
• Engine Control System
• Vibration Aspects
• Monitoring Systems and Instrumentation
• Dispatch Pattern, Testing, Spares and Tools
• Project Support and Documentation.
