ITT Inc. announced that its Svanehoj business has secured its first agreement to provide flow technology on next-generation Ultra Large Ethane Carriers (ULECs). Under the agreement, Svanehoj will deliver deepwell fuel, cargo and stripping pumps for two ULECs, each with a carrying capacity of 40 million gallons, beginning in early 2026 for a leading European maritime customer. Ethane, a critical component in energy and petrochemical production processes, is transported in liquefied form at low temperatures to reduce its volume for shipping over long distances.
Svanehoj's highly engineered pump solutions have become the marine industry standard for moving ethane because electrical components are placed outside the tank, simplifying access for maintenance and repair. ULECs are the third generation of large-scale ethane carriers, outperforming older vessels while providing multi-gas transport for greater operational flexibility. This award follows the company's successful expansion into the ethane carrier segment beginning in 2019.
Since then, Svanehoj has won multiple awards on second-generation ethane carriers, known as Very Large Ethane Carriers (VLECs), and all VLECs operating globally are equipped with Svanehoj deepwell pumps.
