Wärtsilä has been contracted to supply the re-gasification system for an FSRU conversion project that Höegh LNG plans to carry out on a modern LNG vessel. The contract was signed in August.
The Wärtsilä re-gasification system to be supplied will feature re-gas technology using water glycol as the intermediate medium instead of propane. This provides a more compact solution being some 15% smaller and lighter than the propane based system.
The Wärtsilä scope of supply for this project comprises the water glycol re-gasification module, the water glycol /seawater heaters and pumps. Delivery is scheduled for autumn 2017.
Wärtsilä has previously supplied eight re-gasification systems to Höegh LNG.
