INEOS and Royal Wagenborg have signed a landmark agreement on the delivery of a new build COâ‚‚ carrier. This vessel, based on Wagenborg’s award-winning EasyMax design, will be built by shipyard Royal Niestern Sander and marks a significant step towards advancing carbon capture and storage (CCS) within the European Union, according to Wagenborg's release.
The long term agreement with INEOS marks the first construction and deployment of a dedicated COâ‚‚ carrier for Wagenborg. This purpose-built COâ‚‚ carrier, designed to meet the highest standards of safety and efficiency, will facilitate large-scale transport of COâ‚‚ to the Greensand storage site in the Danish North Sea, led by INEOS with its partners Harbour Energy and Nordsøfonden.
The EasyMax concept – developed by Royal Wagenborg and Royal Niestern Sander – has proven to be successful in terms of safe, reliable and efficient ocean transportation.
