Torm, an international product tanker owner and operator based in Denmark, will retrofit 36 of its existing vessels and equip eleven newbuilds with Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 Ex systems.

Torm has vessels ranging in size from 35,000 to 114,000 DWT. The company has worked with Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 Ex since 2017 and retrofitted its first system in 2018. Having recently ordered PureBallast 3 Ex for newbuild projects in China, Torm will now retrofit the same across their product tanker fleet.

Fleet Agreement

Under the fleet agreement, 47 Torm vessels will be equipped with large-flow PureBallast 3 Ex systems of 2000 m3/h. The deliveries, which will extend from 2019 to 2024, will include connectivity units in addition to the systems themselves. These units will provide remote access to operational performance data from the installed systems, which will secure long-term compliance with ballast water treatment regulations when combined with scheduled service support.
