Release time :

2024-10-02

In late April this year, the OCCS system installed on Evergreen's neopanamax container vessel(Flag: Panama, RO: ClassNK) successfully captured CO₂ from its exhaust gas emissions.The captured CO₂ was offloaded to a shore facility and was recycled.

On October 1, 2024, ClassNK confirmed an amount of the offloaded CO₂, and deducted the amount from the ship’s annual CO₂ emissions in CII assessment under the direction of the Flag Administration of the Panama Maritime Authority. This series of initiatives anticipates practical operations that may be widely conducted in the future to reduce GHG emissions and is the first case in the world. This is a significant step for the maritime industry to achieve the goal of Net-zero GHG emissions.

 

According to ClassNK, this is one of the important initiatives for the maritime industry to achieve Net-zero GHG emissions.

 

Focusing on two main business lines, “emission control” and “energy upgrading”, SMDERI QET, is committed to providing customers with comprehensive solutions for reducing greenhouse gases and pollutants emissions from ships, and has gradually gained the recognition of many customers around the globe in the past ten years.

 

In the future, SMDERI will continue to plough into the field of OCCS, and keep upgrading and innovating, cooperating with partners to contribute to the greener tomorrow.
