Wärtsilä Corporation has signed a new five-year Lifecycle Agreement with Greece-based LNG shipping company Alpha Gas, covering two LNG carriers powered by Wärtsilä 34DF engines.
This agreement aims to enhance vessel reliability, improve operational insight, and ensure predictable maintenance costs—key priorities for LNG operators in today’s regulatory and economic environment.
Enhanced Operational Support for LNG Vessels
Each of the two Alpha Gas LNG carriers included in the agreement operates with four Wärtsilä 34DF dual-fuel engines. Under the agreement, Wärtsilä will provide 24/7 remote expert support, diagnostic monitoring, and predictive maintenance planning.
This will enable Alpha Gas to avoid costly downtime, extend time between overhauls, and reduce lifecycle costs through timely, preventive interventions.
Tailored Service to Maximise Asset Value
Wärtsilä’s consultative approach ensures the agreement is customised to Alpha Gas’s needs, contributing directly to asset performance and long-term value.
Henrik Wilhelms, Director of Agreement Sales, Wärtsilä Marine, emphasised that such partnerships are key to helping customers navigate industry complexities and meet ambitious net-zero targets by 2050.
Continuation of Strategic Collaboration
This agreement follows a similar deal signed in November 2024 between the two companies. Together, the four LNG carriers now covered—Energy Pacific, Energy Endeavour, Energy Integrity, and Energy Intelligence—form the backbone of Alpha Gas’s efficient, future-ready LNG fleet.
By deepening its collaboration with Wärtsilä, Alpha Gas is investing in the long-term performance and reliability of its LNG carriers. The new Lifecycle Agreement reflects a growing industry trend where digital support, predictive maintenance, and lifecycle partnerships are becoming essential tools in achieving both operational efficiency and environmental compliance.
