Abstract
A fuel supply system includes a feeder fuel circuit configured to: (i) convey a first fuel in a direction of a mixing tank via a first pump device proceeding from a first fuel tank for a first fuel type; or (ii) convey a second fuel in the direction of the mixing tank via the first pump device proceeding from a second fuel tank for a second fuel type; and a booster fuel circuit configured to convey fuel via a second pump device proceeding from the mixing tank in a direction of at least one marine diesel engine, the booster fuel circuit having an automatic fine filter positioned upstream of or downstream of the at least one marine diesel engine and in the booster fuel circuit, respectively.
