A project assessing the technical feasibility of onboard carbon capture and storage (OCCS) in the shipping sector, carried out by the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative (OGCI), the Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation (GCMD) and Stena Bulk together with a consortium of the world’s leading maritime organisations, has concluded that the technology has the potential to help maritime transport significantly reduce its greenhouse gas emissions.

As pressure mounts to cut CO2 emisions, shipowners are seeking ways to bring thier existing fleets in line with tightening regulations.
New fuel tank options as methanol gains ground
According to many experts, the chemical – CH3OH – offers significant benefits as a marine fuel of the future
Researcher Warns of Hidden Emissions Caused by Ramp-Up of Alternative Fuels
The shift to alternative bunker fuels risks raising the GHG emissions of the shipping industry if additional feedstock for the renewable alternatives is not sustainably produced, according to a recently published paper.
What do we need to know to make CO2 shipping for CCS a reality?
This Energy Insight provides a summary of the concepts and factors relevant to the shipping of CO2 in liquid form, in the UK and elsewhere, for the purpose of broadening the geographic reach of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) applications.
MOL Becomes First Japanese Operator to Commercially Install Onboard CO2 Capture System
TOKYO-Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL; President & CEO: Takeshi Hashimoto) today announced that it has decided to equip its LR1 product tanker Nexus Victoria (75,000 DWT class) with the “Filtree System,” an onboard CO2 capture system with a SOx scrubber (Note 1) manufactured by Value Maritime B.V. (VM) (Note 2), a Dutch emission reducing technology company.
