A large ship in the middle of the oceanSupplier of CO2 pumps, Svanehøj has announced that the world’s three largest dedicated CO2 ships are now on its reference list.

Northern Lights (a joint-venture of Shell, Equinor, and TotalEnergies) is increasing its CO2 shipping capacity with its third LCO2 carrier and has chosen Svanehøj to supply the cargo pump system.

The three ships are the world’s largest of their kind, and the order represents a significant milestone for our ambitions in carbon capture and storage.

Nithin Sudarsan, sales director (gas), Svanehøj says: ‘It is of great value to us that the owners and the gas contractor are showing continued trust in our pumps by awarding us this contract for the third Northern Lights carrier…We see a lot of activity in the LCO2 segment, and we are talking with yards and gas contractors worldwide about opportunities that could materialise in the short term.’
