DNV has entered into a joint development project (JDP) with AL Group and Asiatic Lloyd Maritime to explore the feasibility of carbon capture and storage (CCS) onboard.
Under the JDP, DNV will cooperate with AL on a techno-economic study of CCS on board the vessels using DNV’s FuelPath model to assess the economic potential of the different fuel and technology strategies. The feasibility study will be conducted onboard a 7,100 TEU containership and Kamsarmax bulk carriers.
It’s becoming increasingly important for shipowners to look ahead and embark on a decarbonization strategy that allows for regulatory compliance and optimized operations.
… said Cristina Saenz de Santa Maria, Regional Manager South East Asia, Pacific & India, Maritime at DNV
To remind, DNV has recently announced the release of new guidelines for the safe installation of onboard carbon capture and storage (OCCS) system on board ships.
This Joint Development Project with DNV allows us to explore actively, the adoption of carbon capture technology for our future fleet, while fortifying our commitment to environmental stewardship, emissions reduction, and innovation
…. commented Tonci Zdunic, Group Fleet Director of AL Group
