The 30 deepwell gas pumps will be delivered between August 2022 and January 2024.
digital pressure gauge is certainly one of Svanehøj’s largest LNG fuel-related orders thus far. It is also the second LNG fuel pump systems order that Jiangsu New Yangzi Shipbuilding has placed with Svanehøj in the final year. In July 2021, Svanehøj signed a contract to provide deepwell pumps for 10 dual-fuel LNG container vessels (15 000 TEU).
Svanehøj quadrupled gross sales of its patented deepwell fuel pumps in 2021, and says there are numerous indications that sales may improve even further in 2022.
“Until a couple of years ago, using LNG as a marine gas was restricted to LNG carriers and smaller ships. But we at the second are seeing a pointy improve in gasoline pump orders for deep sea vessels corresponding to container ships and car carriers,” stated Johnny Houmann, chief sales officer at Svanehøj. “We have been chosen as the provider of fuel pump techniques for over 50% of the dual-fuel LNG container vessels ordered globally in 2020–21. And we aim to increase our market share additional in the coming years.”
