German industrial group Bilfinger has revealed a scrubber orderbook worth EUR 102m ($116m).
It said its technology will be used on 70 vessels owned by national and international shipping companies from Germany and Greece.
The group has also signed a deal with a shipyard in China.
Tom Blades, CEO of Bilfinger: “There is huge potential for environmental technologies, especially in the maritime sector.
"Bilfinger has decades of expertise in flue-gas cleaning. This enables our customers to continue safely operating their vessels in what is becoming a stricter regulatory environment.”
TradeWinds has reported that Bilfinger hybrid scrubbers will be fitted onto an initial batch of five of Offen's “Italy-class” 14,000-teu vessels on long-term charter with MSC.
