Bulker operator SDTR Marine eyes CCS options

Singapore-headquartered bulker operator SDTR Marine has entered into a Joint Development Project (JDP) with classification society DNV that will explore the feasibility of installing a carbon capture and storage (CCS) system on an 85,000 dwt Kamsarmax bulk carrier.

As part of the JDP, DNV and SDTR Marine will collaborate on a techno-economic analysis of CCS implementation aboard the bulk carrier. Utilizing DNV’s FuelPath, the study aims to evaluate the economic viability of different fuel and...

ABS And SpaceX Sign JDP On Remotely Controlled Rocket Recovery Droneships

Autonomous Rocket Recovery Droneships

ABS has signed a joint development project (JDP) with SpaceX to review the remotely controlled functions of autonomous rocket recovery droneships used for booster rocket recovery at sea.

The rocket recovery droneships are modified to include an expanded deck to increase the size of the landing platform, four thruster engines for propulsion and to hold on station, and blast shielding to protect electrical and engine equipment on deck. The droneships are entirely unmanned during landings, with a...
