19 September 2024 - 10:30PM
Business Wire
Excelerate Energy, Inc. (NYSE: EE) (the “Company” or
“Excelerate”) has entered into an agreement with Wärtsilä Gas
Solutions, part of technology group Wärtsilä, to purchase a
reliquefaction system for retrofit installation onboard one of
Excelerate’s floating storage regasification units (FSRUs). The
equipment will be available to be installed on any of Excelerate’s
existing vessels based on customer demand or for prospective LNG
projects. The retrofit project will improve the environmental
footprint of Excelerate’s FSRU operations by reliquefying boil-off
gas and returning it back to the cargo tanks, thus reducing
emissions and saving cargo at the same time. The system is also
fitted with the latest technology and features to minimize
maintenance and operational costs.
“We are committed to reducing the environmental footprint in all
our operations, and this project is a substantial part of that
commitment. We are very pleased to partner up with Wärtsilä Gas
Solutions for this project, as their unmatched experience in
reliquefaction systems, state-of-the-art technology, and all-round
project engineering capabilities make them the ideal partner for
us,” said David Liner, COO at Excelerate Energy.
“As a market leader in types of cryogenic gas applications,
Wärtsilä Gas Solutions has demonstrated to the market for many
years that we have the technology to contribute to greener shipping
operations. We are, of course, very proud to be partnering with an
industry-leader such as Excelerate Energy, which is a strong
testament to our capabilities in delivering quality, commercial
value and environmental benefits to our clients,” commented Walter
Reggente, VP Wärtsilä Gas Solutions.
Delivery of the Wärtsilä reliquefaction system is scheduled for
early 2026.
