BRUNNTHAL/MUNICH (dpa-AFX) - Fuel cell supplier SFC Energy has landed a follow-up order from a Canadian oil producer. The order for frequency converters is worth more than four million Canadian dollars (about 2.7 million euros), the SDax company announced in Brunnthal on Tuesday. The order will have a full impact on sales and earnings in the current financial year. The order corresponds to a good three percent of turnover in 2022.

According to the announcement, the Canadian customer uses SFC Energy's systems to operate electric submersible pumps for artificial oil recovery on drilling platforms. The integration of the systems reduces installation and operating costs, it said. It will also improve pump uptime and optimize operation, which will increase the amount of oil pumped./lfi/lew/jha/
