Liquid CO2 shipping is moving from small-scale food-and-beverage trades towards early application in carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) value chains, but its near-term shape is being set as much by fiscal and permitting setting

sourve : Northern Lights Northern Lights JV has awarded a charter agreement to a consortium of Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, Ltd. (“K” LINE), and MISC Berhad for one new liquid CO₂ transport vessel. A second vessel will be awarded to the same consortium in April 2026. Further, two charter agreements have been awarded to Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. for two new CO₂ transport vessels. The three first vessels awarded will each have a 12,000 m3 cargo capacity. The long-term time charter ag

This critical funding will enable the construction of a Floating Liquefaction and Storage Unit with a liquefaction capacity of 3mtpa expandable to 5mtpa. The facility will also benefit from cold energy produced via heat exchangers for the liquefaction of CO2, due to its co-location with the neighbouring LNG

A full-scale testbed at HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering (HD KSOE) underpins the company’s push into low-pressure (LP) liquefied CO2 carriers, with trials that demonstrated cargo handling, reliquefaction and emergency operations on representative equipment and procedures. The engineering centred on operating at LP conditions that allowed bi-lobe Type C tanks and higher volumetric efficiency. Structural integrity was addressed using an engineering critical assessme
