We continue to see an increasing demand for safe and cost-effective solutions to store and transport gaseous compressed hydrogen, and to be able to validate our proprietary solution through Prototype testing can be a game changer to unlocking a significant market opportunity.
… said Provaris’ Chief Technical Executive Officer, Per Roed
Provaris is also exploring opportunities for the production and sale of small-scale hydrogen storage tanks in 2024. The tanks could find applications in marine bunkering, on-board storage for ships, and hydrogen refueling stations.
The H2Neo carrier received FEED design approval in December 2022, and the final approval for construction is subject to the completion of the prototype containment tank design.
To make sure that this market can really take off, we need to draw on the lessons we have learned from other fuels and build from a sound technical foundation. This is why we are very pleased to be working with Provaris, bringing DNV’s experience, expertise, and cooperative spirit to help them deliver this innovative concept.
