Waukesha’s newest generation of the 275GL+ with ESM 2 gas engine provides optimum performance in gas compression and power generation applications. Combining improved power and enhanced efficiency, the 275GL+ with ESM 2 meets the constant demands of today’s oil and gas industry.
Core technical benefits
The 275GL+ with ESM 2 is available in 12-cylinder or 16-cylinder models and provides a high-performance and economical alternative for customers in the most remote and rugged applications by offering:
Lower Emissions
Improved Operational Efficiencies
Low compression ratio piston design coupled with larger turbochargers results in higher power ratings. 16-cyl. model rated at 5,000 BHP. 12-cyl. model rated 3,750 BHP.
Advanced Controls
ESM 2 engine controller integrates engine functionality into a single closed-loop system. Now, you can directly monitor and manage controls for data-driven, fully informed decisions.
