The Danish marine pump specialist Svanehøj has been awarded a contract to produce pump systems for two LNG fuelled carriers that may transport liquid CO2 to the Northern Lights project’s storage amenities in Norway.
2021 has been a record yr for Svanehøj.
Northern Lights is growing infrastructure to transport CO2 from industrial emitters in Norway and different European nations 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 anticipated to be operational in 2024. Both vessels may have a capability of seven,500 m3 of liquid CO2. Svanehøj will deliver two 15 m deepwell cargo pumps of for each ship. In this venture, Svanehøj’s multigas expertise shall be proven to its full potential, because the customer desires the pumps to even be used to handling LPG natural fuel. Over the years, Svanehøj has supplied cargo pump techniques to greater than 1,one hundred LPG tankers around the world.
“We have won the order through our long-standing companion, TGE Marine, which designs and delivers full cargo dealing with methods for the CO2 carriers,” said Thomas Uhrenholt Nielsen, sales director, Cargo Gas at Svanehøj. “TGE has chosen our deepwell cargo fuel pumps, which they are very familiar with from quite a few LPG tankers.”
Svanehøj has been supplying cargo pump methods for CO2 carriers since the late 1990s.
เกจวัดแรงดันอาร์กอน to our expertise from the comparatively few CO2 ships built so far, we’re a part of the dialogue on several of the upcoming CCS (carbon capture & Storage) tasks. CCS is a focus space in our business strategy, and the order from TGE for Northern Lights is subsequently of nice strategic significance. This could presumably be a big market for us inside the next few years,” addedsaid Uhrenholt Nielsen.
Svanehøj began 2022 with a brand new “Powering a greater future” technique and a target of doubling its turnover to DKK1 billion (approximately US$143 million) by the tip of 2026. The technique is primarily focused on supporting the transition to climate-neutral delivery, but in addition on investing in new business areas, including CCS.
