The Wärtsilä 25 is a modern medium-speed 4-stroke marine engine based on
the reliable and proven Wärtsilä 31 modular technology platform. The engine is
available in 6–9L cylinder configurations, with a power output ranging from 1.7
to 3.4 MW. The Wärtsilä 25 offers outstanding fuel flexibility with diesel, dual-fuel
LNG and ammonia versions available.

Technical features
• Common rail fuel injection – New-generation, high-pressure
fuel injection technology optimises combustion and
fuel-injection settings at all loads and enables smoke-free
operation.
• LNG operation with minimum MN 70 without compromising
performance.
• Variable valve timing – Stepless and on-off type inlet and
exhaust valve timing are used to optimise the engine for
each specific application.
• Fuel gas system (Wärtsilä 25DF) – The fuel gas system of
the Wärtsilä 25DF shares common parts with the successful
Wärtsilä 31DF, meaning ensured system validation and
better spare parts availability. The system features high-
accuracy pressure-balanced gas valves, and the proven port
injection concept provides rapid response for dynamic load
control and operational flexibility.
• Cost-efficient low pressure gas supply for ammonia,
similar to LNG fuelled W25DF
• Higher power per cylinder available with two-stage
turbocharging – Two-stage turbocharging
further increases efficiency and reduces
emissions accordingly without compromising
performance.
• Enhanced combustion (Wärtsilä
25DF) – Wärtsilä’s latest combustion
technology, a first for the industry,
reduces emissions to the same
level as a pure gas (SG) engine.
• IMO Tier II and Tier III
compliant with Wärtsilä NOx
Reducer (NOR) depending
on fuel type.
