In cooperation with French tank designer GTT, Svaneh\u00f8j will deliver fuel, cargo and spray pumps for four very large ethane carriers (VLEC). This order follows delivery of the same to six VLECs in 2019.<\/p>\n
For each of the ten VLECs, which have a cargo capacity of 98,000m3<\/sup>, Svaneh\u00f8j will deliver eight cargo pumps, two fuel pumps and four spray pumps. The pump systems for the first six vessels have been delivered, while the pump systems for the last four vessels will be delivered in Q3 of 2021.<\/p>\n Svaneh\u00f8j is meeting an increasing demand for larger vessels and, four years ago, launched a patented fuel pump for gas, thereby offering complete deepwell pump solutions for all types of gas such as LNG, LPG, ammonia and ethane.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is the first time that our deepwell gas pumps are used on such a large scale, which is why this VLEC project is of huge strategic significance for us,\u201d said Johnny Houmann, sales director at Svaneh\u00f8j.<\/p>\n \u201cIt proves that we are able to provide adapted solutions with 29m pumps that function efficiently at significantly lower temperatures and still meet very high standards for vibrations and operations,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n It is the first time that deepwell pumps are being used with the GTT membrane tank which is more sensitive to vibrations. Svaneh\u00f8j has overcome this by using a mounting solution with \u2018spider\u2019 supports that brace the pump and reduce vibration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Danish pump manufacturer Svaneh\u00f8j has secured orders worth more than US$7.5 million from Korean shipyards Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) and Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":676,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-675","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-equipment"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/675","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=675"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/675\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":677,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/675\/revisions\/677"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/676"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=675"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=675"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=675"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.motorship.com\/propulsion-and-future-fuels-conference\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=675"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
