| Work Detail |
Floater expert Modec has signed a memorandum of understanding with Carbon Clean Solutions for the development and deployment of FPSO-based offshore post-combustion carbon capture technologies. The agreement seeks to accelerate the deployment of Carbon Clean’s onboard carbon capture solution for Modec-designed FPSOs. The work under the deal will take Carbon Clean’s rotating packed bed CycloneCC and size this for the typical emission profile of a Modec FPSO. If the outcome of the work is successful, it would enable post-combustion carbon capture to be offered as a standard offering on future FPSO projects. “This agreement is a major step toward commercialising onboard carbon capture for FPSOs and sets a precedent for the broader maritime industry,” said Aniruddha Sharma, chair and CEO of Carbon Clean. This follows Modec entering a FEED contract with Samsung E&A for the installation of a carbon capture system on an FPSO in February this year. The pilot programme was for the first-ever installation of the CycloneCC solution on an FPSO. |
