Smarter safe transfer
To create LNG, natural gas is cooled to cryogenic temperatures of minus 162°C. This, its volatility, and the huge size of the vessels that ship the fuel, pose significant challenges in transfer of LNG. Expertise and proven material formulations to withstand extreme temperatures makes Trelleborg a leading supplier of seals, hoses and their secure fitments, which ensure safety and long-lasting operation.
Alongside these critical elements in the transfer process, Trelleborg has helped revolutionize docking and mooring of LNG carriers, being integral to the shift from traditional methods of bringing a vessel into port to digital ones. SmartPort is a technology platform developed by Trelleborg that underpins this process. It combines smart equipment and software to connect disparate LNG operations allowing tankers, terminals and other assets to work together safely and harmoniously. The digital system collects information and enables the analysis of data, to optimize operational efficiency and inform better decisions in real-time. Providing greater connectivity between different ship-to-shore stakeholders it protects people and infrastructure.
