The tilted thruster concept significantly improves vessel’s dynamic positioning (DP) capability by reducing thrusterhull interaction losses Excellent hydrodynamic efficiency for better DP capability Less power needed for first-class performance thus lowering operational costs (OPEX) Combined electric driven steering and retraction system reduces thruster room space requirement (WST-24/32R) Wärtsilä can include electric drive system and full electric package integration Plug and play pre-alignevd package for simple and fast installation (WST-24/32R) Compact design allows larger propeller within the same vessel envelope space Optional compliance with CLEAN notations and US EPA VGP2013 requirements All thruster operations, including retraction/deployment, are fully automated and controlled from the bridge stations
