SVT ADRIATIC – High Pressure Marine Loading Arm for CNG

The availability of liquefied natural gas (LNG) is becoming increasingly important for a reliable worldwide gas supply. Floating storage and regasification units (FSRUs) play a key role in the LNG supply chain, especially with respect to shortest realization time. SVT offers the interface for this challenging task and is your partner for the safe transfer of CNG between the FSRU and the shore side gas grid. Enjoy the video about our SVT ADRIATIC, the specialist for high pressure natural gas.

Largest ship loading arm in the history of SVT GmbH

We are very proud to report today about the largest ship loading arm that SVT has ever designed and built:

After a year of planning, design and production, it is finally done:

The “monster”, as the loading arm is affectionately called at SVT, is 28 meters high and weighs 57 tons. In this video the SVT team prepares the loading arm for the final test phase on the SVT test site.

When the loading arm will later be fully assembled at its destination with counterweight, triple swivel assembly and platform, its weight will reach almost 80 tons.

He will need this stability in his new destination since he will have to withstand temperatures as low as -52 ° Celsius, heavy waves, storms and salt water.

HP safety disconnect coupling (STK) for CNG loading

At this year’s GASTECH in Houston, the SVT team was able to present our newly developed High Pressure Safety Release Coupler for CNG products (HP QCDC), a main component of the SVT high pressure loading arm. The HPQCDC has successfully passed all tests according to OCIMF guidelines, conducted by Lloyd’s Register.

SVT developed the hydraulically controlled SVT High Pressure Loading Arm to meet the requirements of loading HP CNG in port and on floating regasification units (FSRU).

The flexible and contemporary design enables operation under extreme conditions. It not only enables safe loading and high reliability, but also optimizes maintenance requirements and total cost of ownership for terminal operators.

Special transport of completely assembled SVT Marine Loading Arms on the River Rhine

Recently, three SVT Marine Loading Arms type ATLANTIC started a three days and a 100 kilometer long journey on the river Rhine.

A tugboat and a Rhine ship transported the fully assembled and thus 2400 ton floating jetty potoon to its new destination near Cologne.

The SVT Marine Loading Arms can now directly be connected – plug and play – to the existing port infrastructure.

SVT GmbH – First ISO 45001 certification by Lloyd’s Register in Germany

ISO 45001 was developed as a new central standard in the field of occupational safety and health. One of its special features is that it emphasizes the responsibility of the top hierarchical level and declares occupational safety and health protection to be a task for all managers. In addition, external companies are also included in the consideration in order to ensure safety in an all-encompassing manner.

SVT GmbH is the first company in Germany to be certified to ISO 45001 by Lloyd’s Register.
