Burckhardt Compression has been selected to supply critical boil-off gas (BOG) and pipeline injection compressors (MSO) for a new LNG regasification terminal in Brunsbüttel, Germany. This terminal will play a vital role in securing a stable supply of LNG for Germany, with regular operations expected to start in 2027.

The new Brunsbüttel terminal aligns with Germany’s national strategy to enhance energy security and reduce reliance on coal and nuclear power. Burckhardt Compression’s BOG and pipeline injection compressors will ensure safe and efficient LNG handling and injection into Germany’s national gas network.

This contract underlines Burckhardt Compression’s commitment to global energy security and highlights the company’s role in advancing sustainable energy solutions for the future. The LNG sector is projected to grow significantly in the coming years, with traded volumes expected to increase by more than 50% by 2040.

The LNG supply chain encompasses several critical steps, including gas purification, liquefaction, transportation, regasification, and distribution. As global demand for LNG continues to rise, terminals are transforming into multifaceted hubs.

Burckhardt Compression’s specially designed compressors, including the gas tight Laby® compressor, offer robust solutions with maximum operational flexibility for handling BOG operations.
