ABS Issues AIP for ECOLOG’s Low-Pressure 40,000 m3 Design for LCO2 Carrier
(ATHENS) ABS issued an approval in principle (AIP) for a low pressure, shallow-draft, low carbon footprint 40,000 cbm liquid carbon dioxide (LCO\2\) carrier design for ECOLOG Services Ltd. (ECOLOG). This AIP is the result of extensive cooperation within a joint industry project on the detailed design development, taking into account LCO\2\ critical characteristics, including operational requirements with respect to low pressure and shallow draft. The design maximizes energy integration and minimizes greenhouse gas emissions. The project team included Hanwha Ocean Co., Ltd.
