La presentación la realizó el director comercial de la empresa MAN, Michael Wenninger, uno de los máximos expertos mundiales en el tema. «La mayor aportación de estos motores es que son capaces de mantener la combustión sobre gas natural y eso le permite ser uno de los más verdes que existen; es decir totalmente ecológicos y muy amistosos con el medio ambiente», comentó.
Aunque aún está en experimentación, en mayo del 2010 se entregará el primer pedido, que será insertarán en buques metaneros y en cruceros de pasajeros. El tiempo de entrega de los pedidos que ya tienen sobre la mesa lo estimó Wenninger en tres meses. De momento es un tipo de motor que no puede ser instalado en buques de la armada debido a su gran potencia.
