Korean shipyards select Svanehøj pumps for 4 more VLECs

Following the delivery of deepwell pump systems for six Very Large Ethane Carriers (VLECs), Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) and Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) have contracted Svanehøj to supply pumps for an additional four vessels.

Working with French tank designer GTT, Svanehøj will deliver eight cargo pumps, two fuel pumps and four spray pumps in the third quarter of 2021 for each of the four VLECs.

These latest pump orders are worth more than US$7.5 million to Svanehøj.

It is a recognition of our technology and expertise that we are enormously proud of.”

SHI and HHI are building the 10 identical VLECs for a Chinese customer
