Together with Salt Ship Design teams, and in relation with key stakeholders (main equipment suppliers, class and flag authorities, fuel providers, among others), Louis Dreyfus Armateurs has been developing a full liquid hydrogen-based SOV design, the company announced.
The liquid-H2 SOV, currently in the concept design phase, will be able to operate 95% of the time with zero carbon emission, with vessel only releasing water during standard operations. This would have a huge positive impact on offshore windfarm operations-related emissions, by preventing the release of about 4.000t of CO2 per year.
The vessel will display best-in-class CSOV operability footprint, up to 90 technicians onboard, together with 14-days endurance at sea without requiring additional offshore facility, nor heavy port infrastructure.
