Landmark study on offloading onboard captured carbon dioxide identifies low port readiness as key barrier to large-scale commercialisation
Image: GCMD Singapore, 19 March 2024 – A recent study commissioned by the Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation (GCMD), in collaboration with Lloyd’s Register and ARUP, has identified low port readiness as a major hurdle bottlenecking the adoption of Onboard Carbon Capture and Storage (OCCS) system as a practicable decarbonisation solution. Whilst the technologies required…
