Alfa Laval to supply fuel-conditioning systems for gas-driven vessels in breakthrough order


Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid
handling – has won its first order for a completely new and very robust compact
heat exchanger for gas-fuel conditioning from the Korean shipbuilder Daewoo
Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME). The order, booked in the Marine &
Diesel Equipment Segment, has a value of approximately SEK 24 million and
deliveries will start already this year and are expected to be completed in
2016.
The innovative compact Alfa Laval heat exchanger, a new addition to the marine
portfolio for alternative fuels, can handle temperatures and pressures far
beyond other welded plate heat exchangers. In this case, they will have a dual
functionality since they will be installed onboard six LNG carriers to be built
by DSME. There, they will re-liquefy the boil off gas from the tanks and
simultaneously condition the fuel gas for the engine. The new Alfa Laval heat
exchangers are also very well suited for other gas-driven vessel types, such as
tankers, container ships etc.

“This order proves that Alfa Laval is a company that quickly reacts to changing
customer demands by continuously adding new and innovative products to its
offering,” says Lars Renström, President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group. “To
the marine industry, we can now offer solutions to handle alternative fuels,
such as liquefied natural gas, on top of our offering for diesel-driven vessels.

Did you know that.... for Alfa Laval, the value opportunity per ship is the same
- no matter the fuel used?
