Engineering

The main engine of the ship is MAN B&W 6S90MC-C with output power of 39,500 hp, achieved at 76 rpm.[citation needed] The output power together with the improved propulsion system and high-effective propeller, allow the cargo ship to operate with service speed of 15.0 kn.[citation needed] The maximum achieved speed during the trial tests was over 16.5 kn.[citation needed]
