Gas diesels can draw fuel from the well
Article Abstract:
Wartsla Diesel initially introduced the 'fuel off the well' gas diesel concept for marine powerplants during the 1980s. A large number of engines based on the company's gas diesel technology have been produced and are in operation all over the world. The first, the Ringgold in the US, has been functioning for more than 30,000 operation hours without showing any technical problems.
