CO₂ Capture and Offshore Storage Process

Solutions

CO₂ Capture and Pipeline

Large industrial sources, such as cement plants and power plants, are equipped with advanced CO₂ capture technology. The captured CO₂ is transported via a high-capacity pipeline to the shore.

At the shoreline terminal, the LCO₂ is transferred to specialised tankers using robust LCO₂ transfer hoses. This step ensures the CO₂ is securely loaded onto the tanker for its journey to the offshore storage site.

Tanker Voyage

The fully loaded tanker embarks on its voyage to a floating hub located offshore. This hub is strategically positioned above the storage well, ready to receive the CO₂.​​​​​

Offloading at Floating Hub

Upon arrival at the floating hub, the tanker offloads its cargo of LCO₂ using a marine hose transfer system. Once the offloading is complete, the tanker returns empty to the shore to pick up more CO₂, ensuring a continuous cycle of capture and storage.​​​​​​

Subsea Storage

The floating hub pumps the CO₂ subsea into the storage well or aquifer through high-pressure CO₂ transfer hoses. This process is planned to continue for 20-30 years until the storage well is filled, ensuring a long-term solution for CO₂ storage.
