เพรสเชอร์เกจคือ Svanehøj has been awarded a contract to provide pump methods for 2 LNG fuelled carriers that can transport liquid CO2 to the Northern Lights project’s storage facilities in Norway.
2021 has been a record 12 months for Svanehøj.
Northern Lights is developing infrastructure to transport CO2 from industrial emitters in Norway and different European international locations by ship to a receiving terminal in western Norway for intermediate storage, earlier than being transported by pipeline for permanent storage in a geological reservoir 2,600 m underneath the seabed.
The two CO2 carriers are being constructed at Dalian Shipbuilding (DSIC) in China and are expected to be operational in 2024. Both vessels may have a capacity of 7,500 m3 of liquid CO2. Svanehøj will ship two 15 m deepwell cargo pumps of for every ship. In this challenge, Svanehøj’s multigas expertise will be proven to its full potential, because the customer wants the pumps to also be used to handling LPG pure gas. Over the years, Svanehøj has provided cargo pump techniques to greater than 1,100 LPG tankers all over the world.
“We have won the order by way of our long-standing associate, TGE Marine, which designs and delivers full cargo handling systems for the CO2 carriers,” stated Thomas Uhrenholt Nielsen, sales director, Cargo Gas at Svanehøj. “TGE has chosen our deepwell cargo fuel pumps, which they’re very familiar with from quite a few LPG tankers.”
Svanehøj has been supplying cargo pump techniques for CO2 carriers since the late Nineteen Nineties.
“Thanks to our expertise from the comparatively few CO2 ships built up to now, we are part of the dialogue on several of the upcoming CCS (carbon capture & Storage) initiatives. CCS is a focus area in our enterprise technique, and the order from TGE for Northern Lights is subsequently of nice strategic significance. This could be an enormous market for us within the subsequent few years,” addedsaid Uhrenholt Nielsen.
Svanehøj began 2022 with a new “Powering a greater future” technique and a target of doubling its turnover to DKK1 billion (approximately US$143 million) by the tip of 2026. The technique is primarily centered on supporting the transition to climate-neutral shipping, but also on investing in new business areas, including CCS.
