Move to LNG with leading technology and knowledge

LNG is a marine fuel in increasing demand. By replacing traditional fuel with LNG, CO2 emissions are reduced by up to 30%. Simultaneously, most of the harmful NOx and SOx particles are suppressed and particle emissions will be reduced.

At Svanehøj, we ensure you not only leading knowledge and technology in LNG-solutions but also a proven track record. Around the world Svanehøj is already responsible for +7000 DW pumps installed on vessels around the world.

For years we have pioneered cleaner alternatives and our patented DW fuel pump for LNG, which can be modified to run on LPG, ammonia, and methanol, enables you a safe and reliable transition to future fuels as well as enhanced competitiveness every step of the way.

Case

Fuel pump solutions for dual-fuel LNG container vessels

Until a few years ago, the use of LNG as a marine fuel was limited to LNG carriers and smaller vessels but now deep-sea, ocean-going vessels such as container ships also stand in line to switch to the eco-friendlier fuel.

Svanehøj supplies once more one of Asia’s biggest shipbuilders with dual-fuel pump solutions for LNG container vessels, making Svanehøj responsible for more than 50% of the market share.

The benefits of LNG-fueled solutions with Svanehøj

Compatible with all liquified fuel types

The DW fuel pump is designed to support LNG but also other all other fuel gas types such as LPG, methanol and ammonia.
Up to 30% CO2 reduction

The unique design and effective technology of the DW fuel pump enables CO2 reductions
by up to 30%.
Suppresses NOx and SOx

Switching to LNG-fuel reduces NOx emissions by up to 80% and eliminates almost all SOx particles
Safe and cost-effective design

By placing all sensitive components outside the tank, you are guaranteed much safer operations and less maintenance costs (25.000 hour/5-year service intervals).

Powering valuable solutions from one end to the other

LNG is significantly cleaner than other fossil fuels

The maritime industry needs to improve its carbon footprints – especially its emissions to air. In an ideal world all vessels and carriers would operate on carbon-free fuels from tomorrow, but this is not possible by a long stretch.

While we need to undertake this transition, replacing fuel oil altogether, LNG is for the time being among the best alternatives fuels for the maritime industry.

Switching to LNG provides significant advantages, by meeting increasing regulatory requirements, offering enhanced competitiveness, and last but not least reduction of CO2-emissions and other harmful pollutants.
