Titled ‘Enabling the hydrogen shipping revolution’, this article considers how centrifugal compressor technology is being scaled to support liquid hydrogen carriers and help manage boil-off gas (BOG) during transport.

Daniel outlines why liquid hydrogen is emerging as a leading vector for intercontinental hydrogen transport, and explains why BOG handling is so critical aboard liquid hydrogen carriers.

We also discuss the lessons learned from the Suiso Frontier pilot project – the world’s first purpose-built liquid hydrogen carrier, and consider some of the key technical challenges of designing compressors for liquid hydrogen temperatures.
