Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a gas engine and a ship provided with the same, the gas engine making it is possible to ensure a distance that enables fuel and an oxidizing agent to mix, and to evenly mix the oxidizing agent and the fuel even if the flow rate of gas traveling towards intake pipes varies. A gas engine (1) comprises: an intake passage (10) through which a gas flows; a plurality of intake pipes (12A, 12B) where the intake passage (10) branches apart at a branching section (14) that is downstream in the gas flow direction, the intake pipes opening to a cylinder (16) at the downstream end; and a fuel injection means (31) that injects fuel into the intake passage (10). The fuel injection means (31) is provided upstream of the branching section (14) in the gas flow direction, and injects varying quantities of fuel into the plurality of intake pipes (12A, 12B).
