Nikkiso to provide pumps for German LNG import terminal
1 September 2026
Hamburg, Germany– Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases Group (Nikkiso CE&IG) has announced it has secured a significant contract with CS Gas North to provide 16 submerged motor pumps for German LNG Terminal in Brunsbüttel.
Nikkiso CE&IG is manufacturing high-pressure, low-pressure and ship-loading pumps for the project, which is being built by German LNG Terminal GmbH and scheduled to be operational in 2027.
The terminal includes two LNG tanks, each with a capacity of 165,000 cubic meters, and once operational will have the capacity to send 10billion cubic meters of gas into Germany’s national grid every year. The project is built around infrastructure for liquefied natural gas (LNG), bio LNG and synthetic natural gas (SNG), but is also designed to enable the transition to even lower-carbon fuel alternatives like hydrogen in the future.
Nikkiso CE&IG has been contracted by the lead EPC contractor, CS Gas North S.L., to provide the pumps for the project.
Ole Skatka-Jensen, Regional Vice-President for Europe, Middle East and Africa at Nikkiso CE&IG, said: “The German LNG Terminal is a crucial part of Germany’s energy future thanks to the supply of LNG and green gases, as well as preparing for the future hydrogen economy.
The award of the contract with CS Gas North S.L follows a similar contract for the Hanseatic Energy Hub in Stade, where Nikkiso CE&IG is supplying 20 low-pressure and nine high-pressure pumps for Germany's largest land-based terminal for liquefied gases.
