Svanehøj Has Reached a Significant Milestone: 1,000 Fuel Pumps Sold

The rapidly growing interest in cleaner ship fuel has accelerated the sales of Svanehøj fuel pumps to such an extent that the company has now reached a significant milestone: 1,000 pumps sold. More than half of these pumps have been sold within the last three years, further driving the transition towards more environmentally friendly maritime transport.

Recognizing shipping's urgent need for innovation, Svanehøj has committed to directing at least 95% of all R&D investments into solutions and products that support their mindset of "Powering a better future".

They have already invested significantly in new products, including the electric submerged fuel pump for LNG, the “CS Fuel Pump”, the “HPP Triplex Unit”, a high-pressure fuel pump solution for LNG fueled engines, and, most recently, the “HP NH3 Fuel Pump”, the world’s first high-pressure centrifugal pump for ammonia fuel applications. Each of these products introduce significant innovations, designed to meet the maritime industry's demand for efficient, leak-free, critical components with long service lives.

Svanehøj pumps already make a significant difference today
Since introducing the Svanehøj Deepwell (DW) Fuel Pump for liquefied gas in 2016, the company has equipped hundreds of vessels – including LPG and LNG carriers, cruise ships, PCTCs, container vessels, P&C tankers and bulk carriers – with their patented fuel pumps.

As an integral part of ESG reporting, they annually calculate the contribution to decarbonization to show that they are already making a significant difference today. The recent Product Impact Assessment shows that the LNG and LPG fueled vessels ordered in 2023 with Svanehøj DW Fuel Pumps are expected to achieve an overall lifetime (25 years) saving of 33.96 million tons of CO2 compared to similar vessels with HFO propulsion. This equates to approximately 45% of Denmark's annual consumption-based CO2 emissions.
