旋转电动执行器为挪威“下一代”碳捕获存储项目选择。
旋转has been awarded a contract to supply IQ3 and Skilmatic SI range actuators to an essential and unique industrial decarbonisation project in Norway.
Northern Lights is developing the world’s first open-source CO2 transport and storage infrastructure. It is a major milestone towards decarbonising Europe, and as a first-of-its-kind operation, it is trailblazing for similar projects in the future.
To meet the Norwegian and European Union’s long-term climate targets, a full-scale Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) project called "Longship" is scheduled to be operational by 2024. Northern Lights provides CO2 transport and storage as a service as part of this full-scale operation.
The process begins when the liquefied CO2 is shipped from industrial capture sites to an onshore receiving terminal located on the Norwegian west coast.
At the receiving terminal, liquefied CO2 will be transferred from the ship to intermediate storage tanks. From there, the liquefied CO2 will be transported by pipelines 100 km offshore to be injected and stored safely and permanently in a saline aquifer 2.6 km under the seabed.
Skilmatic SI actuators were selected for CO2 storage tank applications at the onshore receiving terminal; the actuators feature smart technology so that in the event of an Emergency Shutdown (ESD) valves will close to protect the system.
IQ3 actuators will operate shut-off valves along the pipeline when required, in line with stringent safety system requirements. Equinor chose Rotork’s robust, safe and reliable actuators due to their prior experience with Rotork products in the oil and gas offshore environment. The actuators are due to be installed in 2023.
北极光项目供应链的一个重要战略野心是“零维护”。Rotork的流控制解决方案具有数十年来可靠性的广泛可靠性记录，非常适合该项目。
Northern Lights项目与Rotork对支持能源过渡的承诺保持一致。Rotork将继续关注下一代CCS项目的原则需求，包括优化操作，提高效率和降低风险。
