The Danish marine pump specialist Svanehøj has been awarded a contract to supply pump methods for two LNG fuelled carriers that can transport liquid CO2 to the Northern Lights project’s storage facilities in Norway.
2021 has been a document yr for Svanehøj.
Northern Lights is creating infrastructure to transport CO2 from industrial emitters in Norway and other European international locations by ship to a receiving terminal in western Norway for intermediate storage, earlier than being transported by pipeline for everlasting storage in a geological reservoir 2,600 m beneath 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 will have a capacity of 7,500 m3 of liquid CO2. Svanehøj will deliver two 15 m deepwell cargo pumps of for each ship. In this venture, Svanehøj’s multigas know-how shall be proven to its full potential, because the customer wants the pumps to also be used to handling LPG natural gas. Over the years, Svanehøj has provided cargo pump techniques to greater than 1,one hundred LPG tankers around the world.
“We have won the order by way of our long-standing partner, TGE Marine, which designs and delivers complete cargo dealing with systems for the CO2 carriers,” stated Thomas Uhrenholt Nielsen, sales director, Cargo Gas at Svanehøj. “TGE has chosen our deepwell cargo gasoline pumps, which they are very familiar 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 expertise from the relatively few CO2 ships constructed so far, we are part of the dialogue on a number of of the upcoming CCS (carbon capture & Storage) projects. CCS is a spotlight space in our business technique, and the order from TGE for Northern Lights is subsequently of great strategic importance. This might be a giant market for us inside the next few years,” addedsaid Uhrenholt Nielsen.
เกจวัดแก๊สหุงต้ม started 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 tip of 2026. The strategy is primarily targeted on supporting the transition to climate-neutral shipping, but also on investing in new enterprise areas, together with CCS.
