The Danish marine pump specialist Svanehøj has been awarded a contract to provide pump techniques for two LNG fuelled carriers that will transport liquid CO2 to the Northern Lights project’s storage services in Norway.
2021 has been a report yr for Svanehøj.
Northern Lights is growing infrastructure to move CO2 from industrial emitters in Norway and different European countries 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 could have a capacity 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 know-how might be proven to its full potential, because the buyer needs the pumps to even be used to handling LPG natural fuel. Over the years, Svanehøj has provided cargo pump methods to greater than 1,one hundred LPG tankers all over the world.
“We have won the order via our long-standing associate, TGE Marine, which designs and delivers full cargo dealing with methods for the CO2 carriers,” mentioned Thomas Uhrenholt Nielsen, gross sales director, Cargo Gas at Svanehøj. “TGE has chosen our deepwell cargo gasoline pumps, which they’re very conversant in from quite a few LPG tankers.”
Svanehøj has been supplying cargo pump systems for CO2 carriers for the reason that late Nineties.
“Thanks to our experience from the relatively few CO2 ships constructed so far, we’re a part of the dialogue on several of the upcoming CCS (carbon seize & Storage) initiatives. CCS is a focus space in our enterprise strategy, and the order from TGE for Northern Lights is due to this fact of great strategic significance. This could probably be a big marketplace for us within the subsequent few years,” addedsaid Uhrenholt Nielsen.
Svanehøj began 2022 with a new “Powering a better future” strategy and a goal of doubling its turnover to DKK1 billion (approximately US$143 million) by the top of 2026. เกจวัดแรงดันน้ําไทวัสดุ is primarily focused on supporting the transition to climate-neutral shipping, but also on investing in new enterprise areas, including CCS.
