When removing the marine gas turbine engine as shown in the illustration, how is the engine removal accomplished? Illustration GT-0022

Correct Answer: Option A — By removing the inlet screen, barrier wall and module front panel, then installing the rails and moving the engine into the engine room and up through the soft patch to the main deck.

Marine gas turbine modules are designed for modular removal through specific shipboard access routes. Removing the inlet screen, barrier wall, and front panel allows the engine to be placed on specialized rails. This configuration enables the engine to be moved horizontally to a soft patch for vertical extraction to the main deck.
