The Danish marine pump specialist Svanehøj has been awarded a contract to provide pump systems for 2 LNG fuelled carriers that will transport liquid CO2 to the Northern Lights project’s storage facilities in Norway.
2021 has been a report year for Svanehøj.
Northern Lights is growing 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 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 know-how will be proven to its full potential, because the customer wants the pumps to also be used to dealing with LPG pure gas. Over the years, Svanehøj has supplied cargo pump techniques to more than 1,one hundred LPG tankers around the world.
“We have received the order by way of our long-standing associate, TGE Marine, which designs and delivers complete cargo handling techniques for the CO2 carriers,” said Thomas Uhrenholt Nielsen, gross sales director, Cargo Gas at Svanehøj. “TGE has chosen pressure gauge weksler ราคา , which they’re very acquainted with from quite a few LPG tankers.”
Svanehøj has been supplying cargo pump systems for CO2 carriers because the late 1990s.
“Thanks to our experience from the relatively few CO2 ships built up to now, we are part of the dialogue on a quantity of of the upcoming CCS (carbon capture & Storage) projects. CCS is a spotlight area in our enterprise strategy, and the order from TGE for Northern Lights is due to this fact of nice strategic significance. This could be an enormous market for us within the next few years,” addedsaid Uhrenholt Nielsen.
Svanehøj began 2022 with a new “Powering a greater future” technique and a goal of doubling its turnover to DKK1 billion (approximately US$143 million) by the top of 2026. The strategy is primarily targeted on supporting the transition to climate-neutral transport, but also on investing in new enterprise areas, including CCS.
