This online course is designed for all Engine Officers responsible for the operation ME Engine. The course practically consists of technical lessons and practical instructions on the design, principles, operating procedures, and maintenance activities for the safe, efficient, and optimal performance of the engine system. 

The course aims to provide practical understanding of the principles, design, operation, and maintenance of the ME Engine System, enabling participants to gain technical knowledge on safe & efficient operation of the engine and fault-finding in the control system.

The course practically deals with the following training areas:

1. Introduction to ME Engine

2. Hydraulic Power Supply (HPS)

3. Hydraulic Cylinder Unit (HCU)

4. Engine Control System (ECS)

5. Main Operating Panel (MOP)

6. Standard Operation 

The training instructions and activities focuses on tuning and balancing of engine parameters which will improve specific fuel oil consumption (SFOC) and achieve desired emission control, i.e.:

• Adjustment of Pmax, Pcomp and Compression Ratio.

• Difference between MC type (conventional) and ME type (electronic) engine.

• Difference between ME-C and ME-B type (camless and light cam)

• Adjustments of Cylinder oil, Exhaust Valve and Fuel Injection parameters.

• Step by step vessel operation from dead ship to full away, utilizing the main operating panel (MOP).
