Spanish engineering and technology specialist Sener has completed the conceptual design of a tanker that can both bunker other vessels with a range of fuels (including biofuel) and store carbon captured by
Capturing and storing CO2 is an important strategy in efforts to reduce global CO2 emissions. But how do you get the captured carbon to where you store it? Wärtsilä has been working
With Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) likely to play an increasing role in combating climate change, there could be a growing market for marine transportation of captured carbon in the form of
As IMO’s MEPC 81 was going on in London last week, ABS Chairman and CEO Christopher J. Wiernicki was telling a session of the CERAWeek energy conference in Houston that a universal,
With CCS (carbon capture and storage) set to play a growing role in global decarbonization, Malaysia-based FPSO and FSU operator Bumi Armada is turning its attention to opportunities in this emerging sector.
With interest in onboard carbon capture and storage solutions gaining traction, ClassNK has released “Guidelines for Shipboard CO2 Capture and Storage Systems.” The guidelines include provisions for indicating the class notation for
While the UN’s International Maritime Organization continues to dither on shipping’s proposals to fund maritime decarbonization using some sort of levy on carbon, the European Union is taking a very different approach
