Alfa Laval wins SEK 150 million energy-efficiency order in the Middle East

Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling – has won an order to supply compact heat exchangers to a natural gas plant in the Middle East. The order, booked in the Energy & Process segment late December, has a value of approximately SEK 150 million and delivery is scheduled for 2017 and 2018.

The order comprises the delivery of compact heat exchangers which will be used to recover energy in the gas cleaning process, thereby bringing down the plant’s power consumption and CO₂ emissions.

“These heat exchangers are commonly used in demanding applications as they are both safe and reliable,” says Svante Karlsson, President of the Process Technology division in Alfa Laval. “The order confirms Alfa Laval’s position as a reliable partner for the oil and gas industry.”

Did you know that… natural gas is the only fossil fuel that does not suffer a decline in its share of the energy mix[1]?
