The workshop aims to present the results achieved in NAUTILUS project and its future exploitation. The NAUTILUS project aims at developing, evaluating and validating a highly efficient power generation system fuelled by Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) for long-haul passenger ships. The to be developed system will cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50% and all other diesel engine exhaust gas emission components almost entirely.

The workshop will conclude with a podium discussion on the lesson learned and the next steps for technology upscaling and application.
