The Danish marine pump specialist Svanehøj has been awarded a contract to supply pump techniques for 2 LNG fuelled carriers that can transport liquid CO2 to the Northern Lights project’s storage amenities 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, before being transported by pipeline for everlasting storage in a geological reservoir 2,600 m beneath 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 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 project, Svanehøj’s multigas expertise will be proven to its full potential, because the buyer wants the pumps to also be used to handling LPG pure gasoline. Over the years, Svanehøj has supplied cargo pump systems to more than 1,100 LPG tankers around the globe.
“We have gained the order by way of our long-standing companion, TGE Marine, which designs and delivers complete cargo handling techniques for the CO2 carriers,” stated Thomas Uhrenholt Nielsen, gross sales director, Cargo Gas at Svanehøj. “TGE has chosen our deepwell cargo gasoline pumps, which they are very acquainted with from quite a few LPG tankers.”
Svanehøj has been supplying cargo pump methods for CO2 carriers for the explanation that late 1990s.
“Thanks to our experience from the comparatively few CO2 ships built up to now, we are part of the dialogue on several of the upcoming CCS (carbon seize & Storage) projects. CCS is a spotlight space in our enterprise technique, and the order from TGE for Northern Lights is therefore of great strategic importance. This might be an enormous market for us inside the subsequent few years,” addedsaid Uhrenholt Nielsen.
ที่วัดแรงดัน began 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 tip of 2026. The technique is primarily centered on supporting the transition to climate-neutral transport, but in addition on investing in new business areas, including CCS.
