The Wärtsilä Compact Reliq can be mounted on existing vessels without substantial adjustment needs.
Wärtsilä has actually presented a small remedy for reliquefying boil-off gas (BOG) onboard gas service providers as well as LNG shelter vessels, as well as for maintaining the freight cool under all functional problems. Called the Compact Reliq, its layout allows it to be mounted on existing vessels without substantial adjustment job.
“Wärtsilä has been a pioneer in BOG reliquefaction and the Compact Reliq is a continuation of our strong development activities in this field,” claims Kjell Ove Ulstein, Director Sales & & Marketing, Gas Solutions, WärtsiläMarine Systems “As the global market for LNG applications expands in response to increasing environmental regulations, greater flexibility in meeting these growing needs is required. The Compact Reliq is an important and innovative new piece towards completing the puzzle.”
As with formerly supplied Wärtsilä reliquefaction systems, the Compact Reliq is based upon well-proven Brayton modern technology. This permits a section of the BOG to be made use of as gas for the vessel, while the unwanted can be melted as well as marketed with the LNG freight. Liquefying the BOG rather than melting it in a Gas Combustion Unit additionally has a favorable ecological impact, as no gases are launched right into the ambience.
The system is prepared according to Wärtsilä’s Smart Marine technique to capitalize on the most up to date electronic modern technologies to enhance effectiveness. It prepares instrumented for remote surveillance as well as online functional assistance, as well as calls for marginal upkeep in between 5-year period docking. The Compact Reliq works with Wärtsilä’s Operational Performance Improvement as well as Monitoring (OPERIM) procedure, as well as can be completely incorporated with the ship’s Planned Maintenance System (PMS).
