The Danish marine pump specialist Svanehøj has been awarded a contract to supply pump systems for two LNG fuelled carriers that may transport liquid CO2 to the Northern Lights project’s storage services in Norway.
2021 has been a document year for Svanehøj.
Northern Lights is developing infrastructure to move CO2 from industrial emitters in Norway and other European international locations by ship to a receiving terminal in western Norway for intermediate storage, before being transported by pipeline for permanent storage in a geological reservoir 2,600 m under the seabed.
เกจวัดแรงดันลมขนาดเล็ก are being built at Dalian Shipbuilding (DSIC) in China and are anticipated to be operational in 2024. Both vessels may have a capacity of seven,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 shall be shown to its full potential, as the customer wants the pumps to even be used to handling LPG pure fuel. Over the years, Svanehøj has supplied cargo pump methods to more than 1,100 LPG tankers around the world.
“We have gained the order through our long-standing companion, TGE Marine, which designs and delivers complete cargo dealing with systems for the CO2 carriers,” mentioned Thomas Uhrenholt Nielsen, gross sales director, Cargo Gas at Svanehøj. “TGE has chosen our deepwell cargo gas pumps, which they’re very acquainted with from quite a few LPG tankers.”
Svanehøj has been supplying cargo pump systems for CO2 carriers for the reason that late 1990s.
“Thanks to our experience from the relatively few CO2 ships built up to now, we’re part of the dialogue on several of the upcoming CCS (carbon capture & Storage) projects. CCS is a focus space in our business strategy, and the order from TGE for Northern Lights is due to this fact of great strategic significance. This might be a giant market for us within the subsequent few years,” addedsaid Uhrenholt Nielsen.
Svanehøj began 2022 with a model new “Powering a better future” strategy and a goal of doubling its turnover to DKK1 billion (approximately US$143 million) by the top of 2026. The technique is primarily centered on supporting the transition to climate-neutral shipping, but also on investing in new business areas, together with CCS.
