Northern Phoenix. Source K Line China’s Dalian Shipbuilding Industry (DSIC), part of China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC), has delivered a new liquefied carbon dioxide (LCO2) carrier to Northern Lights, a joint venture (JV) encompassing three European oil majors: Shell, Equinor, and TotalEnergies. While revealing the delivery of the Northern Phoenix liquefied CO2 carrier to Northern Lights, Japan’s maritime transport player, Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha (K Line) , which ente

Courtesy of Porthos During PCI Energy Days, organized by the European Commission last year to highlight projects of common interest (PCIs) for the energy infrastructure story, multiple CO2 projects from the Netherlands inked grant agreements under the CEF Energy, with the aim of building a cross-border CO2 transport and storage network for Northwest Europe. These projects have the potential to transport up to 35 million tonnes of CO₂ per year from industrial emitters to perm

The European Commission has taken the first concrete step towards operationalizing the Carbon Removals and Carbon Farming (CRCF) Regulation, adopting a piece of legislation that paves the way for future development. The Commission has adopted the Implementation Regulation, which sets clear roles, responsibilities, and rules around the certification of carbon removals and carbon farming units, underscoring the importance of transparency and credibility for these operations. I

Prinos Installation in Kavala - Greece The market currently favours a capacity allocation "formula" similar to existing European practices for the underground CO2 storage facility in Prinos. This approach rejects the proposal from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, as outlined in the bill under consultation. The proposal suggested a regulatory allocation for one part and a tender based on price for the remainder. Meeting Overview This conclusion emerged from a mee

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

Independent analysis reveals regulatory and economic barriers could leave the EU 40% below 2030 underground carbon storage targets. The European Union’s ambitious carbon storage targets under the Net Zero Industry Act (NZIA) are unlikely to be met, according to new research from Wood Mackenzie. The study, commissioned by ExxonMobil , OMV Petrom , Shell , and TotalEnergies , but conducted independently, finds that Europe’s available CO2 injection capacity by 2030 will reach o

A coalition of ten leading companies and industry groups has written to European Commissioners and the Danish Presidency of the Council of the EU, urging them to accelerate support for zero-emission shipping and aviation technologies under the forthcoming Sustainable Transport Investment Plan (STIP). The letter, coordinated by the SASHA Coalition , was signed by technology pioneers including Ecojet, ZeroAvia, ZULU Associates, MONTE, Hybrid Air Vehicles, LH2 Shipping, Condor,

Image source: CCSA At the CCUS 2025 Conference held in London lastweek, the future of carbon capture and storage didn’t sound just like a tale of pipes and permits—it sounded like a movement. Engineers, bankers, and policymakers gathered to share a rare kind of optimism about how the UK and Europe might still reach their net-zero goals. Funding is complex, politics uncertain, but one message rang out: no one can do this alone. A Startup Mindset for Heavy Industry When Phil H

SHUTTERSTOCK archive photo The agreement, which calls for zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, was opposed by the US, while Greece, like Cyprus, had previously expressed serious reservations. The vote by members of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) on the proposed new net zero carbon emissions framework (IMO Net Zero Framework – NZF), supported by the European Union, China and other states, has been postponed for a year . The decision came out, during the Inter
