Figure 4-45 shows the installation principle for maximum fuel flexibility.

Further information about MDO/MGO fuels is available in the separate Con-
cept Guidance (DG 9723). This considers additional design options for the fuel
oil system, as well as optional heat exchangers for better viscosity regulation
when changing between HFO/LSHFO and MDO/MGO.
This is provided on the WinGD webpage under the following link:

Fuel consumption
Data of fuel consumption should be taken from the project-specific GTD data
sheet.
4.7.1 Fuel oil system components
The following components are associated with a fuel oil system of maximum fuel
flexibility, i.e. operation on heavy fuel oils and distillates, as indicated in Figure
4-45. Therefore, the following section considers a fuel oil viscosity of 700 cSt at
50 °C.
In cases where only distillate fuels are considered, the system can be simplified
(as explained in section 4.7.2,  4-80), however consideration must be given the
reduction in fuel oil viscosity.
