Hydrogen Bunkering For Crew Transfer Vessels

Windcat工作船在英国运营着30艘船员转移船(CTV)，在欧洲运营着18艘。Windacat与CMB Revolve Technologies Ltd(CMBRTL)合作，开发和制造了一台氢动力CTV。要在英国运营这艘船，需要进行岸基氢气加油，一旦有足够的加油，将制造更多的闭路电视或从柴油改装。如果港口没有氢气，我们就不能部署氢动力船只，建设基础设施至关重要。加油拖车可以进行有针对性的部署，随着车队的建立，将为固定资产提供业务案例。这项提案建立在CMBRTL现有研发的基础上，将从这些项目中提取元素，以便快速开发和部署氢气加油解决方案，使H2 CTV能够部署在英国。这些项目包括用于船上使用的200bar存储系统、200bar移动加油站、位于我们多式联运枢纽的350bar固定加油站，以及用于比利时分布式H2的500bar集装箱系统。结合这些项目，并与英国监管机构合作，我们的目标是在非常短的时间内提供一个实用的移动加油系统该项目将在由Air Products运营的牛津地铁拖车加油站使用Ramsgate或Grimsby进行管道拖车加油。加油拖车将使用部分氢燃料卡车从现场移走。该项目将与格里姆斯比的闭路电视连接，并将进行加油和再供应试验，以研究整个端到端过程中的商业和立法合规问题。作为项目的一部分，CMBRTL将与氢气供应商和DFT合作进行道路运输和ADR审批，我们将与Grimsby和Ramsgate港口当局合作获得加油许可和流程，进一步我们将与MCA合作定义海岸和CTV之间的界面和加油流程。这将是第一个在英国试验的端到端海上加油系统。由于船只审批延迟，现在将在布伦特伍德的CMBRTL设施使用模拟船只进行初步试验。该项目将解锁港口中氢气的使用，并允许CMBRTL和Windcat扩大我们在港口的业务，加速海事部门的脱碳。

WindCat Workboats operates 30 Crew Transfer Vessel (CTV) around the UK and 18 in Europe. Working with CMB Revolve Technologies Ltd (CMBRTL), Windacat has developed and built a Hydrogen Powered CTV. To operate this vessel in the UK, shore based Hydrogen Bunkering is required and once sufficient bunkering is available further CTV's will be manufactured or converted from Diesel. Without Hydrogen at the ports we cannot deploy H2 powered vessels and it is vital that we build an infrastructure. The Bunkering trailer allows targeted deployment and as a fleet builds will provide the business case for fixed assets.This proposal builds on existing R&D by CMBRTL will take elements from these to allow the rapid development and deployment of a hydrogen bunkering solution to allow the H2CTV to be deployed in the UK.These projects include a 200bar Storage system for on ship use, 200bar mobile bunkering station, 350bar fixed bunkering station at our multi modal hub and a 500bar container system for distributed H2 in Belgium. Combining these projects and working with the UK regulators we aim to deliver in a very short time scale a practical mobile bunkering systemThis project will operate out of either Ramsgate or Grimsby with tube trailer refuelling at the Oxford tube trailer filling station operated by Air Products. The Bunkering trailer will be moved from the site using a partial Hydrogen fuelled truck.The project will link with the CTV at Grimsby and will conduct bunkering and re-supply experiments to research the commercial and legislative compliance issues with regards to the entire end to end process. As part of the project CMBRTL will work with Hydrogen suppliers and the DFT for road transport and ADR approval, we will work with both Grimsby and Ramsgate port authorities for bunkering permissions and processes and further we will work with the MCA to define the interface and bunkering processes between the shore and the CTV.This will be the first end to end marine bunkering system to be trialled in the UK. The initial Trials will now take place using a simulated vessel at the CMBRTL facility in Brentwood due to Vessel approval delays.The project will un-lock the use of hydrogen in the port and allow CMBRTL and Windcat to expand our operations within port accelerating the decarbonisation of the maritime sector.
