Singapore, 16 February 2024 – Seatrium Limited (Seatrium, or the Group) is pleased to announce that it has successfully secured the world’s first full-scale, turnkey Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) retrofit from Solvang ASA, Norway, a long-term Favoured Customer Contract (FCC) partner.
The full-scale retrofit of a 7MW Wärtsilä Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) system will be carried out on Solvang’s 21,289 cubic metre ethylene carrier, Clipper Eris, scheduled to commence in the third quarter of this year. The project will use amine cleaning technology to capture 70 per cent of the carbon dioxide (CO2) in the exhaust gas from the main engine, involving the entire value chain for handling CO2, including liquefaction and storage onboard the vessel.
Seatrium’s key scope of work includes basic design, detailed engineering,
procurement, upgrading of electrical and automation systems, as well as the
integration of a carbon capture and compression / storage system.
