Bestobell Marine to supply valves for LNG carrier re-liquefaction systems
Bestobell Marine, the marine division of Bestobell Valves, has secured two contracts for its valves to be fitted in the LNG re-liquefaction systems that will be installed on two LNG carriers, which are being built at the Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) shipyard in South Korea for Knutsen OAS Shipping of Norway.
Similar systems will also be installed on two sister ships being built by Imabari Shipbuilding Group in Japan for Elcano.
The company has previously supplied cryogenic globe and check valves for re-gasification systems, including for the five Hoegh floating storage regasification units (FSRUs) that have been constructed at the HHI shipyard.
Bestobell Marine said its cryogenic globe valves are fully fire-safe and leak-free, based on a proven design that it has used for over a decade for LNG ship applications.
The company has over 35,000 cryogenic valves fitted on ships and has recently developed a brand new range of high-pressure globe valves that are fitted in LNG fuel-gas systems for MAN ME-GI engines, where natural gas is injected into the engine at over 300 bar pressure.
