The Danish marine pump specialist Svanehøj has been awarded a contract to produce pump methods for 2 LNG fuelled carriers that will transport liquid CO2 to the Northern Lights project’s storage facilities in Norway.
2021 has been a document year for Svanehøj.
Northern Lights is growing infrastructure to transport CO2 from industrial emitters in Norway and other European countries 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 built at Dalian Shipbuilding (DSIC) in China and are expected to be operational in 2024. Both vessels will have a capacity of 7,500 m3 of liquid CO2. Svanehøj will deliver two 15 m deepwell cargo pumps of for every ship. In this challenge, Svanehøj’s multigas technology will be proven to its full potential, as the buyer wants the pumps to also be used to dealing with LPG pure fuel. Over the years, Svanehøj has supplied cargo pump systems to greater than 1,one hundred LPG tankers all over the world.
“We have won the order by way of our long-standing partner, TGE Marine, which designs and delivers complete cargo handling methods 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 methods for CO2 carriers for the explanation that late Nineties.
เกจวัดแรงดันออกซิเจนราคา to our experience from the comparatively few CO2 ships built so far, we’re part of the dialogue on a quantity of of the upcoming CCS (carbon seize & Storage) initiatives. CCS is a focus area in our enterprise strategy, and the order from TGE for Northern Lights is due to this fact of great strategic significance. This might be an enormous marketplace for us throughout the next few years,” addedsaid Uhrenholt Nielsen.
Svanehøj started 2022 with a new “Powering a greater future” strategy and a goal of doubling its turnover to DKK1 billion (approximately US$143 million) by the end of 2026. The technique is primarily centered on supporting the transition to climate-neutral delivery, but also on investing in new business areas, together with CCS.
