Narrative description of the project

The SPARTACUS is the world’s largest CSD and the first to be powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG). The four main engines can run on LNG, marine diesel oil (MDO) and heavy fuel oil (HFO). The two auxiliary engines also incorporate dual-fuel technology. It also incorporates several additional innovations, such as a waste heat recovery system, a one-man dredge control and a heavy-duty cutting scale that can reach a dredging depth of 45 m (150 ft).
