Engineering

CMA CGM Kerguelen has main engine MAN B&W 11S90ME-C9.2, which has total output power of 87,900 hp at 78 rpm. The engineering on board is equivalent to that of 10 A380 airbus reactors and the electricity, which the generators provide, is enough for a city with 16,000 citizens. The main engine has electronic injection system, which is from latest generation, considerably reduces consumption of fuel (-3% on average) and for oil (-25%). The wisted leading edge rudder improves the vessel's hydrodynamics (optimizing water flow), significantly reducing fuel consumption and Шаблон:Chem emissions. The addition of a bulb on the rudder, innovative technology implemented on the CMA CGM KERGUELEN, helped to improve the energy performance by an additional 4%. Such improvements allow vessel to operate with service speed of Шаблон:Convert.
