LNG-fueled Samskip RO/RO to be retrofitted with compact carbon capture system

The Samskip Kvitbjorn, a Norwegian-flagged LNG-fueled RO/RO carrier, is to be retrofitted with an onboard carbon capture system, with the help of funding from the Netherlands Government’s Maritime Master Plan.

The funding, awarded Rotterdam-headquartered Value Maritime and its partners in the Maritime Efficient & Easy Carbon Capture (ME2CC) consortium, will contribute to the development, construction and demonstration of a first-in-kind compact, modular carbon capture system on board the vessel.

NYK and KNCC up the pressure with LCO2-EP carrier design

With interest in carbon capture and storage increasing, more vessel operators, designers and builders are looking at thevessels that will transport that captured carbon to where it will be stored. In the latest development in this area, Japan’s Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha (NYK) and its affiliate Knutsen NYK Carbon Carriers AS (KNCC) are conducting a joint constructability study of a 40,000 cubic meter terminal-to-terminal liquefied CO2 (LCO2) carrier design. It uses KNCC’s proprietary...
