A study into carbon capture and the global supply chain will take place in collaboration between ABS and Texas A&M University at Qatar (TAMUQ).
The project will research the potential of carbon capture technology at sea. It will explore CO2 reduction strategies as well as emerging onshore CO2 reduction technology and establish a model for effective CO2 capture on an LNG vessel.

The study will also examine the effect of the energy transition toward a hydrogen-based economy on processing, emissions and shipping across Qatar as an energy exporter.
Carbon capture is a technology with significant potential to contribute toward the marine and offshore industries’ sustainability goals
said Pantelis Skinitis, ABS Director, Qatar Business Development.
The project capitalizes on research performed in the Chemical Engineering Program at TAMUQ over the past decade and is led by Dr. Mamoun Al-Rawashdeh, Dr. Dhabia Al-Mohannadi and Dr. Patrick Linke.
These interdisciplinary collaborations are vital and allow us to innovate to meet emerging needs and grand challenges, and we are grateful to our friends at ABS for working with us on this important project
Dr. César Octavio Malavé, dean of TAMUQ, added.
