Our LGE business, a global leader in liquefied gas solutions, has secured its 150th contract for its ecoSMRT® Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Reliquefaction System – marking a significant achievement in the maritime energy sector.
The latest orders include the larger 2.5 tonnes‑per‑hour (tph) ecoSMRT® unit, reflecting the increasing demand for higher‑capacity reliquefaction solutions.
Since its launch less than six years ago, ecoSMRT® has rapidly become the market-leading solution for LNG boil-off gas (BOG) reliquefaction, offering shipowners and operators unmatched efficiency, reliability, and environmental performance. The 150th order, placed by a leading shipyard in South Korea, underscores the ongoing global demand for sustainable and high-performance LNG technologies.
ecoSMRT® continues to play a pivotal role in helping shipowners meet stringent charter reliquefaction targets, whilst simultaneously maximising energy efficiency. The system is now installed across a diverse fleet of LNG carriers, with more than 25 separate shipowners supporting a wide range of energy majors.
Managing Director of our LGE business, Neale Campbell, said: “From the first installation, ecoSMRT® technology has consistently delivered operational excellence and robust in-service support, ensuring reliability throughout the vessel’s lifecycle. This commitment means customers can depend on future-ready solutions that keep their operations efficient and compliant.
“This milestone reflects the trust that our customers place in ecoSMRT® and the dedication of our team to innovate and support vessels currently under construction, while continuing to work closely with partners on future projects.”
As the maritime industry accelerates its transition to net-zero, our LGE business remains at the forefront, delivering technologies that combine economic value with environmental responsibility.
