Mobile carbon capture in shipping is technically feasible. Mobile carbon capture in shipping is technically feasible and has a long term role to play in meeting the industry’s decarbonization targets. That’s according to a new feasibility study conducted by the oil and gas climate initiative (OGCI) and Stena Bulk, an international tanker owner and operator. The study found, however, that high operational and capital expenses would be involved in any deployment and recommended further work should be done to compare costs of carbon capture against other long-term marine carbon dioxide reduction technologies. “The study’s findings demonstrate that marine carbon capture can play a role in meeting the International Marine Organizations (IMO) 2050 target of reducing emissions from the industry by 50 percent compared to 2008 baselines,” a statement published on the OGCI’s website noted. “The decarbonization of shipping is a critical part of achieving global pathways to net zero.
