Smyril Line Chooses IRON Pump Ejector and Pump Package for New RoPax Vessel

IRON Pump is pleased to announce that Smyril Line has selected its centrifugal pump package and ejectors for installation on their new RoPax vessel, set to be built at Yantai Raffles shipyard.

Smyril Line, a well-known shipping company from the Faroe Islands, operates in the North Atlantic, connecting the Faroe Islands with Denmark, Iceland, the Netherlands, and Lithuania. By choosing IRON Pump, Smyril Line is focusing on optimal pump operation to ensure low energy use, long-lasting products, and reduced downtime.

Many ships struggle with pump performance because their initial setups often don’t match their area of operation. This mismatch can lead to inefficiencies and increased energy consumption, which, if not prioritized, can damage pumps and raise repair costs. By ensuring that pumps operate within their designed ranges, Smyril Ferries not only saves energy but also extends the lifespan of its equipment. This commitment strengthens Smyril Line’s position in energy efficiency and reliability over time.

With the marine sector increasingly prioritizing sustainability and environmental responsibility, the demand for reliable and efficient water pumps is on the rise. IRON Pump is well-positioned to meet this growing need, offering a full range of high-quality water pumps designed for long-lasting performance in maritime applications.

The collaborative approach taken by IRON Pump with Smyril Line and Yantai Raffles shipyard highlights their commitment to customizing solutions that address specific operational challenges. This partnership not only reflects a shared vision for efficiency but also sets a precedent for future projects in the maritime industry.

With over 115 years of industry experience, IRON Pump’s expertise was a key factor in the decision-making process. As the maritime industry continues to evolve, companies like Smyril Line are leading the charge toward more sustainable practices.
