Dan-Unity CO2 and Aker Carbon Capture have signed a collaboration agreement to develop flexible CO2 transport solutions, with the aim of establishing a full carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) value chain.
According to Jon Christopher Knudsen, Chief Commercial Officer at Aker Carbon Capture, the aim is to establish compelling full value chain offerings that will enable industrial emitters of CO2 to decarbonize their assets faster.
The companies will identify technical and commercial risks across the CCS value chain, including capture and liquefaction technology, loading and offloading operations, offshore offloading, intermediate storage and permanent subsurface storage.
Transporting CO2 by sea allows for maximum flexibility and multiple sourcing points, thus unlocking economies of scale for many CCS projects, often delivering a lower cost per tonnes compared with other transport solutions
said Steffen Jacobsen, CEO of Dan-Unity CO2.
Aker Carbon Capture and Dan-Unity CO2 will explore the development potential of future CCS value chains by collaborating on market analysis and insight, with the aim of identifying and maturing specific opportunities.
