LNG for land and sea in Europe’s largest breakbulk port
Together with some of the biggest names in the European LNG, we delivered a solution that widens the port of Antwerp's LNG bunkering options.
Cases
Nothings speaks as loud and clear as hands-on, real-life examples. That is why we here present some of our previous projects. Our case stories give you an idea of what we have helped our customers with in the past – and what we can help you with now.
When fuelling a ferry is both fast and environmentally friendly
The Samsoe ferry connects the island of Samsoe to the Danish mainland – and the shipping industry to a future with lower emissions.
Bunkering capacity doubled with minimal investment
Compared to normal truck-to-ship bunkering, KC LNG's Y-piece doubles the number of trucks that can fuel a ship at the same time.
Mobile solution takes bunkering speed to new heights
The Trailer-Mounted Manifold (TMM) allows bunkering from up to four tank trailers (of any type) at once, quadrupling the capacity.
New liquefaction technology reduces power consumption by 40%
Our technical experts teamed up with researchers from DTU to develop new, more efficient methods for the cooling of natural gas.
New liquefaction technology put into action
Our nano-scale LNG liquefaction plant proves that our technology is able to reduce energy consumption during liquefaction by up to 40%.
High-speed LNG bunkering with uninterrupted flow
Naturgy's challenge: delivering LNG to ships from a large number of tank trailers in a short time span. We responded with the MTTS.
Quadrupled LNG bunkering with on-board truck pumps
ENGIE needed to combine the flow from 4 trucks with onboard pumps simultaneously. We engineered the Bunker Manifold.
LNG bunkering pontoon enables simultaneous operation
A water-based bunkering solution can reduce traffic congestion on the dock. That's why ENGIE and Fluxys ordered a LNG bunkering pontoon.
Annual service visits keep up bunkering performance
Just like all other types of mechanics, a bunkering solution needs regular service and maintenance to ensure a high performance.
Upgrading bunkering solution maximises advantages and ergonomics
The Samsoe ferry's bunkering solution worked fine – but even good can always become better.
Solving the problem – without interrupting the sailing timetable
The shipowner discovered a damage on the gas system on board the ferry – KC LNG fixed it without interrupting the sailing operations at any time.
Optimising semi-trailers
Q8 needed 2 semi-trailers that live up to the weight limits – and carry as much LNG as possible. We took on the challenge and developed a new design.
Examining LNG possibilities and potential for the port of Esbjerg
To deliver an EU business case, the port of Esbjerg asked COWI to examine the LNG possibilities and potential – and they soon teamed up with KC LNG.
