The Alfa Laval FCM Ammonia fuel supply system design will be validated by the end of 2024, with the first marine delivery expected by the end of 2025.
– The Alfa Laval FCM Ammonia is another addition to our toolbox of solutions that accelerate the decarbonization of shipping. This delivery to WinGD highlights our technology readiness to handle ammonia as a fuel, demonstrating our commitment to supporting the maritime industry’s transition to sustainable energy sources, says Sameer Kalra, President, Marine Division, Alfa Laval.
Following a recent Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), Alfa Laval, WinGD, the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), and K Shipbuilding (KSB) are collaborating to drive the necessary technological advancements in an ammonia-fuelled MR tanker design. Recently, the scope expanded to include the design of an ammonia dual-fuel boiler system.
– By investing our resources in research, development and innovation, we are steadily advancing in our ambition to enable a future powered by alternative fuels, says Kalra.
– Many shipowners are exploring the use of ammonia as fuel, and Alfa Laval is ready to be a key enabler of this transition— with innovative solutions, technological capabilities and experience in handling a wide range of fuels.
