ABB将为南亚首艘LNG混合动力拖船提供动力

据4月15日Gas world 报道，ABB的电力推进、动力、储能、控制和自动化技术将成为南亚第一艘能够在低排放LNG发动机和零排放电池动力之间切换的拖船的核心。

这艘拖船将在新加坡港口作业，已由Jurong海事子公司Jurong海事服务公司(Jurong Marine Services)订购，将于2020年底前从Jurong造船厂交付。

将液化天然气作为一种燃料降低了二氧化硫的排放，新加坡海事港务局（MPA）也在鼓励使用液化天然气来支持国际海事组织到2050年将船舶二氧化碳排放量减半的目标。

ABB to power South Asia’s first LNG hybrid tug for efficient and sustainable operations

ABB’s electric propulsion, power, energy storage, control and automation technology will be at the heart of the first tug in South Asia capable of switching between low emission LNG engines and zero-emission battery power.

The tug, which will operate in Singapore harbour, has been ordered by Sembcorp Marine subsidiary Jurong Marine Services for delivery from the Sembcorp Marine shipyard by the end of 2020.

LNG as a fuel virtually eliminates sulphur oxide emissions, and the Maritime Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) is also incentivising its use to support the International Maritime Organisation’s aims to halve ship CO2 emissions by 2050.
