MODEC Group company, SOFEC, has been awarded an Approval in Principle (AiP) by DNV for its newly developed Ammonia Transfer System.

The system uses two mooring technologies: the CALM Buoy and Tower Mooring solutions, which are part of SOFEC’s proven product lines. This new development aims to address the challenge of transporting liquid ammonia from an onshore terminal to a remote offshore tanker and vice versa.

Refrigerated liquids, such as ammonia and other e-fuels, are increasingly becoming more important due to their potential as one of the most economically sustainable low-emission fuels. SOFEC’s business objectives are tailored to support the core industry principles of safe and sustainable offshore solutions. This new development is a significant contribution by SOFEC to continue developing an environmentally safe and sustainable energy industry, as the industry strives towards blue and green ammonia production and storage.

The Ammonia Transfer System using mooring technologies is a promising development that could have a significant impact on the energy industry. Below, we explore the goals, technology, potential impact, and challenges surrounding this development.

The primary goal of SOFEC’s newly developed Ammonia Transfer System is to address the challenge of transporting liquid ammonia from an onshore terminal to a remote offshore tanker and vice versa. The system aims to provide a safe, sustainable, and economically viable solution for the transfer of refrigerated liquids, such as ammonia and other e-fuels.

Technology

The Ammonia Transfer System using mooring technologies utilizes two proven product lines from SOFEC: the CALM Buoy and the Tower Mooring solutions. The CALM Buoy is a floating buoy system that can be used to transfer liquefied gases and crude oil. It allows the transfer of refrigerated liquids such as ammonia in a safe and efficient manner. The Tower Mooring solution is a fixed platform that can be used to moor tankers, floating storage units, and floating production storage and offloading facilities. It provides a secure and stable platform for the transfer of refrigerated liquids.

Potential Impact

The Ammonia Transfer System using mooring technologies has the potential to make a significant impact on the energy industry. As refrigerated liquids such as ammonia and other e-fuels become more important due to their potential as one of the most economically sustainable low-emission fuels, this new development could provide a safe and efficient means of transporting these fuels. Additionally, it could contribute to the development of an environmentally safe and sustainable energy industry.

Challenges

While the Ammonia Transfer System using mooring technologies is a promising development, there are potential challenges that need to be addressed. One challenge is the cost of implementing the system, which could be a significant barrier to its adoption. Additionally, there may be regulatory and environmental concerns related to the transport of ammonia and other refrigerated liquids. These concerns will need to be addressed to ensure the safe and sustainable implementation of the system.
