The Danish marine pump specialist Svanehøj has been awarded a contract to supply pump techniques for 2 LNG fuelled carriers that will transport liquid CO2 to the Northern Lights project’s storage amenities in Norway.
2021 has been a record yr for Svanehøj.
Northern Lights is developing infrastructure to move CO2 from industrial emitters in Norway and different European countries by ship to a receiving terminal in western Norway for intermediate storage, before being transported by pipeline for everlasting storage in a geological reservoir 2,600 m under the seabed.
The two CO2 carriers are being constructed at Dalian Shipbuilding (DSIC) in China and are anticipated to be operational in 2024. Both vessels could have a capacity of 7,500 m3 of liquid CO2. Svanehøj will deliver two 15 m deepwell cargo pumps of for each ship. In this challenge, Svanehøj’s multigas know-how might be shown to its full potential, because the customer wants the pumps to also be used to handling LPG natural gas. Over the years, Svanehøj has supplied cargo pump systems to more than 1,100 LPG tankers all over the world.
“We have gained the order by way of our long-standing partner, TGE Marine, which designs and delivers complete cargo dealing with systems for the CO2 carriers,” said Thomas Uhrenholt Nielsen, gross sales director, Cargo Gas at Svanehøj. “TGE has chosen our deepwell cargo gas pumps, which they are very conversant in from quite a few LPG tankers.”
Svanehøj has been supplying cargo pump methods for CO2 carriers since the late Nineteen Nineties.
“Thanks to our expertise from the comparatively few CO2 ships constructed thus far, we are a half of the dialogue on a quantity of of the upcoming CCS (carbon capture & Storage) projects. เกจ์วัดแรงดันน้ำมันเครื่อง is a spotlight space in our enterprise strategy, and the order from TGE for Northern Lights is due to this fact of nice strategic importance. This could presumably be a giant market for us throughout the subsequent few years,” addedsaid Uhrenholt Nielsen.
Svanehøj started 2022 with a new “Powering a better future” strategy and a target of doubling its turnover to DKK1 billion (approximately US$143 million) by the tip of 2026. The technique is primarily focused on supporting the transition to climate-neutral delivery, but in addition on investing in new enterprise areas, including CCS.
